I am holding a solo exhibition from November 8 (Wed) to 26 (Sun) at OGATA Paris (in Paris), to coincide with the PARIS PHOTO 2023 showing. The entire space at OGATA Paris is being turned over to the exhibition, making it an exhibit that sharpens the five senses.  Since ancient times, the world has been shaped by the abundance, fusion and circulation of all life, natural and human, in the uninterrupted flow of time. As a photographer, Mikiya Takimoto has endeavored to capture the essence and breath of the Earth as a single living organism. He has traveled to the farthest reaches of the planet in search of this purest form of our world. During the pandemic, he came face to face with the microcosms that make up our immediate environment. His gaze, from predominantly macroscopic, shifted to the infinitely small. On closer inspection, the smallest of worlds resembles the immensity of the universe in its infinite expanse, which also echoes the depths of the mind. In addition to the "GRAIN OF LIGHT", "FLAME", "SURFACE" and "SNOW MOUNTAIN" series, which respectively capture the changing faces of the sea and depict the serene majesty of elements such as volcanoes, snow-covered or sandy mountains, discover at this exhibition his latest series "EN SO SHIN", which focuses on floral compositions, a temple facing a pond and other scenes of secret prayer. Everything contains a piece of the universe within it, and all life evolves, connected to and surrounded by others. Please discover the link that Mikiya Takimoto illuminates between his works and the universe. text:Airi Kitabo  November 8 (Wed) to 26 (Sun), 2023.

七條甘春堂 季節の和菓子の撮影を担当

2023 10 13

京都に本店を構える七條甘春堂の商品ビジュアルを2021年7月から年間通じて撮り続けてきました。作りたての和菓子の新鮮さ、可愛さ、手をかけるからこそ生まれる手仕事の作り手の想いが一つ一つの商品に現れます。日本に四季があることを五感で教えてもらえる和菓子の魅力。しっとりと美味しく、眺めて楽しく、香りに癒され、口にした時の音や手に持った感触までも楽しめます。アートディレクターは関本明子さん。書家は寺島響水さん。七條甘春堂のホームページもリニューアルされ、新たな始まりを予感させます。小さな和菓子の世界が、広く感じられる展開をどうぞお楽しみください。
I have been creating product visuals for Shichijo Kanshundo, a traditional confectioner based in Kyoto, throughout each year since July 2021. Each and every sweet reveals the freshness and gorgeousness of these freshly made wagashi, or traditional Japanese confections, as well as the spirit of the maker, made manifest by the very act of creating them by hand. There is a fascinating appeal in these Japanese confections which tell us through all five senses that there are four seasons in Japan. Each sweet delights with its delicious moistness, visual enjoyment, soul-soothing fragrance, the sound it makes when you bite into it, and the texture you feel with your fingers as you pick it up. Akiko Sekimoto is the art director. Kyosui Terashima is the calligrapher. Shichijo Kanshundo have also updated their website to give us a sense of new beginnings. I have projected the small world of wagashi to give it a larger feel. I hope you enjoy it.

We filmed a new Suntory Ao commercial. Nobuyuki Fukumoto depicts a world view that dramatically expresses the delighted surprise on the faces of Masaki Okada and Satoru Iguchi from King Gnu as they enjoy different delectable ways of drinking Ao. I hope you enjoy the quirky fun, like the gap between the images of the two men and the delighted surprise on their faces overlapping those images.

2023年 Netflixで全世界に公開されます、実写ドラマ版「ONE PIECE」。尾田栄一郎さんの原作の世界観が躍動感溢れる実写でも展開されることになりました。公開の告知広告のビジュアルと映像制作に携わりました。新しくはじまる時のワクワクする気持ちや、ザワザワ揺れ動く気持ちを海の写真や波の映像に重ねて表現しています。海の色の様々な表情が、これからはじまる新しい展開を予感させます。どうぞご覧ください。
The live action-drama version of the manga series “One Piece” is due for worldwide release on Netflix in 2023. The intensely dynamic live action realizes the world imagined in the original work by Eiichiro Oda. I was involved in the video production as well as the visuals for the pre-release ads. The movie expresses the stirring, giddy feelings, and feelings of excitement you get when something new begins, through pictures of the sea and moving images of waves. Different expressions of the sea’s colors give you a sense of something new about to unfold. Please take a look.
