ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Aokigahara (青木ヶ原?), also known as the Sea of Trees, is a forest on the northwestern flank of Japan's Mount Fuji thriving on 30 square kilometers of hardened lava. Parts of Aokigahara are very dense, and the porous lava absorbs sound, helping to provide visitors with a sense of solitude. The forest has a historical reputation for paranormal activity and as a home to "yūrei" or ghosts of the dead in Japanese mythology. In recent years Aokigahara has become internationally known as one of Japan's most popular destinations for suicide. - Wikipedia Aokigahara is a sequential photographic serie that seeks, in its narrative, an interpretation of the silence, fear and the confrontation of the ghosts that inhabit ourselves.

Humberto Lemos was born in Brazil, 1959. He has been a photographer for 40 years, with his current production essentially focused on authoral photographs. His works invite us to contemplate landscapes that seems to be from other worlds. Images that remind us of how little we are, where emptiness and silence are exalted as protagonists in the absence of human elements. Based in Portugal, Humberto travels searching photographs without addresses - he created the concept of Imaginary Landscapes, deconstructing places and their referents, producing images that come out of the obvious geographic expectations. He works with minimalism on oriental influences.
