The Visions Sabi “Aged and withered, rich and flamboyant, two conflicting ideas attract and interact with each other in a same universe, result in enlivening the universe itself. Sabi is a double structured form of beauty arising from one’s streaming mind in relation to such enlivened universe.” Encyclopedia Nipponica With this series, I explored the concept of Sabi, an idea peculiar to Japanese aesthetics, by means of photography. By capturing the paradoxical beauty created by unexpected collaborations of human, nature and time, I attempted to express Sabi, which exists deep within my conscious, and ultimately, is my motivation for creation.
