When I try to talk about photography as a form of visual expression, I am at a loss. Since I am not skilled in the field of photography, I can only express myself in terms of "somehow" or "somehow.

I don't know what you think about it, though,Satomi YamauchiI feel that his works always have a "somehow" thirsty atmosphere. The unique sense of distance from the subject or object is an indispensable skill for landscape photography. His ability to find unusual and unique subjects is also remarkable.

Yamauchi's work, which captures unique subjects soaring above ordinary landscapes, is like "magic realism" in which reality and fiction are mixed together.

Yamauchi's solo exhibition "Post Palmtree," featuring works with a bit of magic in them, will be held from March 25 (Saturday).

. Below is a letter of invitation to the exhibition.

The longing for "paradise" became assimilated with the longing for "tropical". . The longing became a motif, an existence that could be created. A motif can be created just by being in a town far away from the tropical land of "Tropical". Even if there is no paradise, even if the place is not tropical, the relationship between the motif and the people exists.

This must be the place," "celebration," and "two locals and the palm trees," based on his childhood experience of traveling back and forth between Ito, Shizuoka Prefecture, and Florida. This work is a sequel to "two locals and the palm trees," which was based on his childhood experience of traveling between Ito, Shizuoka Prefecture, and Florida. This work, a sequel to these, was shot in Kanto, Japan.<南国幻想>The theme of the work is.

While the unique presence of the palm tree is captured in an unobtrusive and realistic manner, the image is expressed there in an unrealistic way."
