Photo Galley 2/2

“The lamp. The sea”: Many OiMax’s works are using symmetrical layout putting the main subject at the center. The space composition with one-point perspective projection is nice!




“Bear Servers”: His work touches my chord with the layout stressing vertical and horizontal lines. Both this picture and the previous one have a nice background rhythm while keeping the symmetric composition.




“On the time to the dream; a taste of time when coming into a world of dream”: Would it be a bright paradise or a dark nightmare waiting for you over the bridge? The metallic frame shows various expression according to the light and would be a part of the work.




“floating”: I once took a similar layout using the reflection effect. This work has a beautiful expression of the body under the water.　The use of capitals in the title is following OiMax’s designation. He said that the lower case was used for generalization avoiding strong images.




“Golden Time”: The young body like a local girl expresses a beautiful moment in the wilderness. This is surely the best moment in the life. I do like to have this experience in RL. Another feature of OiMax’s works is to elimate space above the model head, that provides some heightening of tension through the feeling of adjacency.




“Standing for the sumer”: I feel a power saying “Do you have something complaining?” I love the strength of the sunflower too. There are many cool pictures other than these. The exhibition could be replaced soon, so do not miss them! Thank you OiMax for taking time for my interview(?) out of your hectic schedule for setting the gallery.

I have just read a book, “The Creativity Code” by Marcus du Sautey, discussing the possibility to develop creativity with AI. In the book he said that an art is a window to see activities of someone’s mind through it. In that meaning, it could be rather good to ask OiMax’s intention or to guess how he shot the pictures. Please forgive my arbitrary interpretation.
