Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Photographers are technicians to capture a moment. Fireworks are also a work of art that blooms only for a moment. I think that the night sky is a canvas, the moment and the moment conflict with each other and it is a work that will never be drawn in the same way.
- Inspiration
- Japanese fireworks have a momentary beauty sparkling in the night sky. The fireworks which a craftsman put sincerity for this instant and built up. By a launched day, it is blown by wind, never again blooming in the same form. It is exactly the same as our life.
- Research
- Whether photographic expression is film or digital, whether it is a single lens reflex camera or a compact camera, it is not which equipment to use. I wanted to suggest that I could express any machine.Moreover, the result that I believed it and expressed it is this work.
- Challenge
- I tried the possibility that I could photograph with a compact digital camera.It is difficult for photographers to choose which type of fireworks to use and when to shutter with which timing and composition.
- Realization and Technology
- I shot in Digital RAW format.After that, I used Adobe Lightroom to adjust some brightness, color, contrast etc.
- Operation and Interaction
- This work pursues the beauty of nature drawn at the moment.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started and finished in August 2014 in Hokkaido, Japan.
