About The Artwork

This work was taken in the same place and at about the same time as work #4852. The sun before sunset, the hills in the distance, the surface of the sea reflecting the light, the sandy beach, and the ripples lapping at my feet. These are the components of this work. The lens slides with dreamlike speed from the right side of the scene to the sun, capturing and fixing the sun in the center. It is a momentary performance. Yes, less than a tenth of a second. At this time, the lens is stopped down to its maximum value, and also a filter called ND400 is used to control the incoming light. My ICM photos are not edited or altered by Photoshop or other applications. I only remove noise. One moment of shutter release is all that matters. ---------- Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) may seem like a novel technique at first glance. In his book "Photography and the Art of Seeing" (1985/07), Freeman Patterson, a Canadian nature photographer and author born in 1937, introduced the technique of "moving the camera while releasing the shutter. Originally, in photography, the camera was fixed, the focus was sought, and the shutter was released. This was the rule. Freeman, however, turned this common sense on its head. He moves the camera quickly to capture the afterimage of light. In 2022, I am actively using ICM to photograph the beaches and temples around me. Sometimes a mysterious and deeply spiritual expression similar to the collodion process, in which silver nitrate is applied to a glass original plate and photographed, can be reproduced with a digital camera. Without sticking to ICM, I will always seek new photographic expressions that transcend preconceived notions. ---------- high-resolution images, please visit official site at tranzoo.com.

Born in Tokyo, Japan. Expert in establishing the basic technology of computer map systems in Japan. His efficient technology for creating centerline, multi-layered digital maps has continued to grow and is still useful in people’s daily lives. He had aspirations to become an artist and received professional education. In the 1980s, shortly after the release of Apple’s Macintosh, he founded and ran Digital Magic, a company based on the concept of visual communication. His work was reported by various media during this period. Akira Obata has a long history with photography (cameras). It started with a toy camera he bought with his allowance when he was 8 years old. Even after establishing Digital Magic, the camera remained a familiar tool. Every shoot has always had a close relationship with his work. Today, Akira has freed himself from his past shoots, seeking freedom of expression and utilizing the camera as a part of his body of work.
