About Bamboo Forest Ny Sary Zavakanto

Takeo Hirose dia teraka tao Kyoto, 1962. Nanomboka nianatra am-pahavitrihana tamin'ny taona 2011 i Japon rehefa tratran'ny horohorontany goavana. Tamin'ny alàlan'ilay horohoron-tany dia takany fa ny fizarana mahafinaritra dia tsy mandrakizay fa tena marefo tokoa, ary nahatsikaritra ny maha zava-dehibe ny maka sary ny hatsaran'ny Japoney. Ny foto-keviny amin'ny famokarana dia ny fanehoana ny tontolon'ny sary hosodoko japoney nentin-drazana sy ny hoso-doko hoso-doko amin'ny fahatsapan'ny Japoney maoderina sy ny teknolojia sary. Nandritra ireo taona vitsivitsy izay, namokatra ny sangan'asa volotsangana izy ireo, izay mety hifandray amin'i Japana.

Unique Properties: For the past few years the designer has produced the works in the motif of bamboo, which can be associated with Japan. In the project, he is trying to seize the reason why bamboo images strongly associates with Japan.
Dimensions & Packaging: Print size / A3 (297mm X 420mm)
Tags: bamboo, B&W, japan, oriental, monochrome, kyoto, asia, zen, cool, relax, suibokuga
Production Technology: The designer thinks the distinctive characteristics of bamboo are even more attractive in monochrome images using the modern techniques of photography.
At first he takes color photos, and develops them to monochrome images with photoshop and other sophisticated tools.
For development he uses Dell 8K monitor to express delicate touch and light & shade.
Design Challenge: Bamboo itself is very common in Japan, however it is not easy to extract the Japanese beauty from the common motif and create different types of works.
The designer has been trying to get close image to old Japanese paintings and Suibokuga (Japanese ink painting) by creative methods.
Research: The shots from bottom to top is suitable for expression of dignitiy of baoboo forests, while the designer found that the position of each bamboo is very important for the beauty of works.
He found the cyanotype tone suits the atmosphere of the bamboo forests most, and they look like contemporary Suibokuga.
Inspiration: Modern photo artists like Hiroshi Sugimoto and Andreas Gursky inspire the designer so much. However old Japanese artists like Hokusai, Hasegawa Tohaku, Zyakuchu, Ogata Korin etc. also inspire him a lot.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2016 in Kyoto and finished in December 2018 in Kamakura.
Operation Flow: The designer has visited many places of beautiful bamboo forests in Japan. He has also visited several night festivals at which bamboo forests are illuminated.
Actually, there are so many bamboos in Japan, however most are too dense or not trimmed by human, and such bamboo forests are not suitable for his works.
