About The Japanese Forest 사진

일본의 숲은 일본의 종교적 관점에서 가져온 것입니다. 일본의 고대 종교 중 하나는 애니미즘입니다. 애니미즘은 인간이 아닌 생물, 정물 (광물, 유물 등) 및 보이지 않는 것에도 의도가 있다는 믿음입니다. 사진은 이것과 비슷합니다. 에구치 마사루는 피사체에 느낌을주는 무언가를 촬영하고 있습니다. 나무, 풀, 미네랄은 생명의 의지를 느낍니다. 그리고 오랫동안 자연에 남겨진 댐과 같은 인공물조차도 의지를 느낍니다. 손길이 닿지 않은 자연을 보는 것처럼 미래는 현재의 풍경을 보게 될 것입니다.

Research: Type of study: animism, eight million gods. Research purpose: To preserve the existing landscape in the future. Methodology: photography. Tools: Japanese classic books. Influence of design: The more unique the country landscape, the more universal the beauty.
Inspiration: One of the beginnings of Japanese religion is the "Yaoyorozu-no-kami". "Yaoyorozu-no-kami" is the belief that there is a god in all things in nature, and it is introduced in foreign countries as "Animism" or "Shinto". Shooting is similar to "Animism". Trees, minerals, and dead grass feel the will of life, and even if an artifact like a dam is left in nature for a long time, it will feel the will of life. Just as we see untouched nature, the future people see the current scenery.
