The businessman, Limited Edition of (10) + 1 Artist's Proof Photograph

Title: "The Businessman" Description: "The Businessman" is a profound exploration of the intricate interplay between professional life and personal identity, inspired by the cultural phenomenon of 'Otaku' in Japanese society. In Japanese culture, 'Otaku' signifies an individual's obsessive interest in a subject or passion outside of their conventional professional sphere. This work delves into the world of Japanese businessmen who often spend their entire careers working for a single employer, adhering to strict professional norms and facing limited opportunities to express their true selves. The constraints imposed by their professional obligations, dictating their appearance and behavior, are poignantly reflected in the artist's own obsession with 'Shibari'. 'Shibari,' which simply translates to 'to tie,' is an artistic form of rope work that serves as a visual metaphor for the feelings of powerlessness imposed by the demands of the corporate world in which the artist is compelled to exist. This artwork is part of the larger 'I am your Mirror' photography project, which seeks to illuminate the hidden facets of personal identity, societal pressures, and the delicate balance between conformity and self-expression. "The Businessman" invites viewers to contemplate the profound impact of professional life on one's sense of self and the yearning for freedom from these constraints, as expressed through the art of Shibari.
