About Dignity Potograpiya

Gidisenyo niya ang "Dignity" pinaagi sa potograpiya. Ang mga butang mao ang mga kahoy nga pino ug plum nga makita bisan asa sa Japan ug nabuhi na sa kapin sa 100 ka tuig. Kini gipahayag na sa "Sumi-e" ug ink painting, folding screen painting sukad pa sa karaang panahon. Human niya makuhaan og litrato, gi-adjust niya ang exposure ug gibutang kini sa puting kwadrado. Gikan sa iyang mga buhat, ang tumatan-aw makahimo sa paghanduraw sa background ug mobati sa presensya isip "Dignity". Busa masulti nga ang iyang pagsulay sa disenyo mao ang pagtangtang sa mga utlanan tali sa Painting ug Photography.

Unique Properties
This project is to design a "Dignity" by photography. The subjects are trees that are trying to live and survive everywhere unnoticed by anyone in the city now. They have not said anything and made their appearance for a long time. So this project tried to design by photography for expressing these natural appearance in the white square framework as the most beautiful composition.
Dimensions & Packaging
These photographs were taken with fine mode and size are 6016×4016 by Nikon Z5. And all are digitized and JPG files. These original sizes are from 6 to 12 Mega-bytes. For this project, these were changed to the square framework and black and white. These were changed by using Adobe photoshop.

Production Technology
These photographs were taken by Nikon's digital camera. These were considered the most beautiful position and form inside the square framework. And in the home studio, these photos have changed the exposure by using photoshop to be shaped more lively and most beautiful appearance.
Design Challenge
The most difficult is to find objects in the city and to compose the best position to get the empty white background. To delete eliminate waste and discomfort, its appearance stands out more. This makes it possible to express of photography the abstract concepts of "Yugen" and "looseness" in traditional Japanese art culture. This is challenging for new design's possibilities to fuse with Art and photography, the Western and Eastern concept.
Research
This project has the background of ink paintings and "Sumi-e," folding screen painting. That objects are natural things that show the beauty in the four seasons, such as pine, bamboo, plum, flowers in the mountains and river. This project tried to express these forms by black and white photography as the most beautiful appearance in the square.
Inspiration
This project's idea came up suddenly at one time in the city. It is the moment when appears the beautiful appearance in the trees and plants. These were the existence casually that seen everywhere but have not been noticed. It is meaningful for design to clarify the beautiful appearance of life that has been created over a long period. In addition that this project concept is from ink paintings and "Sumi-e," folding screen painting in Japanese and Chinese art and culture.
Project Duration
This project started in May 2020 in Numazu, Japan, and finished in February 2021.
Operation Flow
This project by photography was being able to create a beautiful appearance from the trees that usually and casually were seen. In these photos to create a more beautiful appearance, it selected the black and white photography and square framework.
