(If there's another shot you'd like a print of that isn't available at the store, let me know.)
Much of what I'm doing right now is just experimenting with not-too-serious ideas. What I'm most genuinely interested in is conceptualism and neo-conceptualism: photographers I like include Leiko Shiga, Cindy Sherman, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Miwa Yanagi and Jeff Wall. Yeah, a lot of those are Japanese. It's purely because I live here in Tokyo.
But I'm also a fan of straight-forward beautiful images and manipulations.
For those who are curious about such things, I don't use stock images or textures. Everything you see (with the obvious exception of a few collaborations) has been taken by me only.
If you want to blog an image of mine or use them for something, let me know. I like to imagine I'm a reasonable guy. Got questions or something to say, drop me a line.

This can't even be right. Owen can't just have one testimonial, can he? It's like the universe isn't even turning correctly. The one thing that separates Owen from 99.99% of the population with cameras is that he has Vision. Just look at his work. I can get lost in it for hours.

This can't even be right. Owen can't just have one testimonial, can he? It's like the universe isn't even turning correctly. The one thing that separates Owen from 99.99% of the population with cameras is that he has Vision. Just look at his work. I can get lost in it for hours. It has a perfect balance of delicateness and strength, peace and tension, subtlety and the obvious. He doesn't smack a viewer over the head with his work; instead, it seeps in slowly and leaves a lasting impression. I used to wonder how he comes up with some of his ideas, but I've since stopped trying. Now, I just enjoy the way he sees the world. It's unique but there is also something that I can relate to. It impresses me more and more every time I look at something new. Thank you for the friendship and inspiration!

His work is not only totally imaginative and beautiful, but it sometimes is quite creepy and really makes you use your noggin to try & figure out how he achieved it.

First of all, I cannot believe Owen does not have a million testimonials yet but I am glad to be the first! His work is not only totally imaginative and beautiful, but it sometimes is quite creepy and really makes you use your noggin to try & figure out how he achieved it. He never ceases to amaze me with his incredible photographs. He is also very good at giving you an honest opinion instead of some bullshit jargon that some photographers tend to fall back on. I appreciate his artwork and friendship here on Flickr...you are awesome Owen!
