Koichiro Kurita
Das Portfolio des japanischen Fotografen Koichiro Kurita, der mittlerweile in New York lebt. Kurita hat sich von der kommerziellen Fotografie verabschiedet und beschäftigt sich in seinen Bilder mit dem asiatischen Verständnis von Natur.
"I believe that in nature, the smallest things, or seemingly most insignificant phenomena, have their reason and their role" (Koichiro Kurita)
"I had a fateful encounter with Thoreau’’s Walden and was moved by its absolute freedom of the spirit and ability to enjoy harmony with nature, unconstrained by society’’s rules.
It was so close to the Asian way of understanding nature.
Deeply inspired, I quit commercial photography and retreated to the mountains to start photographing nature. Each surface in the world of nature has a connecting border to the next surface. Each connection contributes to a harmony of nature as a whole.
My work is the expression of these mysterious junctures and an exploration of the connections between myself and nature."
(Koichiro Kurita)
