Yasuo Kiyonaga

Yasuo Kiyonaga photo exhibition「Moment of one second」 will be held at Kyoto Museum of photography Gallery Japanesque From October 15 to December 25, 2024.

They say that what we perceive as “now” actually occurred 0.5 seconds ago.
So, the scene I’m currently viewing also happened slightly in the past.
By capturing this scene with a shutter speed of one second, I accumulated layers of memories.
I wanted to express the scenery of memories, which become ambiguous over time, as well as the “now” of the ancient city of Kyoto, which has over 1200 years of history.
