    Honorable Mention in Book / Fine Art

I lived in Thailand for several years, ten years ago. It is a work that tries to understand the world in which we live by reconsidering my movement, loneliness, and remarkable things that I did not try to see at that time, in multiple words. One day I went to the zoo. It was a zoo on top of a department store. I was in front of the fox's room, amidst the sounds of tropical birds. Through the thick glass, the fox was staring at me blankly. It reminded me of myself ten years ago. I was looking at the fox from the outside. I loved myself for the pain I was in back then.

I started photography when I was over 40 years old, and I went to photography school in Japan for four years. I have been photographing "people who are trying to go somewhere".
