The evolution of photography was also a process in which photography lost its materiality and drifted as information. In contrast to digital, which records light with a sensor, analogue photography is established with materiality. This work was shot using an expired Polaroid film, then the positive sheet was peeled off from the film base, the peeled film base was taken close-up with a digital camera, and do digital processing. The peeled surface is the colour layer of the film, and the inner structure of the photograph is exposed. By visualizing the inner structure of the photograph and the captured image at the same time, I aim to bring out the noise that was inevitably contained in the medium of photography, which was accompanied by materiality to record light. Noise appears only when the world becomes a photograph and is usually invisible to anyone, sways as an intermediate state in which images and matter are mixed. Then, the extracted noise starts a new drift.

About

Born in Osaka, January 1986. His family runs a portrait photo studio in Takatsuki, Osaka, since 1924. After graduating from Yoru no Shashin Gakkou, organized by Masato Seto, currently, he is based in Osaka, creating photo works. Using photographs, he explores the areas involved in image generation, the concept of time, and the photographs themselves through an experimental approach that crosses analogue and digital. During the production process, he pays close attention to the spontaneous process, contingency, and recordability of photographs and materials, and the artist's intention is abandoned, which is contradictory. Through repeated experiments, the work discovers the world between image construction and collapse, in which various contradictions exist at the same time.
