長年、街と心を通わせる生き方を続けてきた僕には、
街に存在するモノや建造物一つ一つに愛おしさすら感じます。

それは登山家が山の息吹を感じるように。
サーファーが海に生命を感じるように。
そんな情熱やノスタルジーを感じずにはいられないのです。
役目を全うしながらしっとりと老いていく
彼らの息遣いに
色気すら感じるのです。
出会ったのか呼ばれたのか。
引き合わせか引き寄せられたのか。

この瞬間この場に居合わせた僕自身の体と視点で、
彼らの魅力を最大限引き出してどんな瞬間を残せるだろう
そうして生まれた作品たちです。
ーZEN

As a person that has spent many life years
experiencing and connecting with cities,
I have grown to appreciate and feel love for
each and everything in a city from the structures
to the littlest of things.

Like a climber that feels the breath of the mountains.
Like a surfer that feels the ocean’s heartbeats.
That same passion and nostalgia, I have.
I am moved by the grace in a life
even as it ages after fulfilling its life duties.

Did we meet by chance or was I called here?
A simple coincidence or were we drawn together?
I may never know but in that moment, I am present.
So, with my body and mind,
I sought to bring out the best in them.
To do all I can to capture an everlasting moment.
That is how these works were born.
