HOMAGE TO DAIDO HEAN KUAN



All the photographs in this album was taken in Shinjuku. That is my homage to Daido Moriyama, the greatest japanese street photographer. My impression of Daido Moriyama’s works are black, lonely, timid but yet attractive. He walks the streets especially Shinjuku, taking random shots for couple of years, and still doing it. He do mentioned while he is walking the streets of Shinjuku taking random pictures, he is actually capturing the desire of humankind, as if he is capturing his desire too. I started to think, what is so impressive about Shinjuku? What attracts him so much until he can keep shooting in Shinjuku? Therefore I decided to travel Tokyo, and stayed at Shinjuku. I wanna experience the streets that been walking by him, trying to realized what he meant about the desire. In fact, the shots I took end up reflects my desire towards Shinjuku.
