... In the end, I think all photos are self portraits.
One day, what does it mean to show my works to others?
I came to think about what it means.
The shutter is always open, and eventually it is the person who activates the shutter.
Through my life, I thought it would be like that in the end.
After many years from that, I felt that listening is more important than anything else.
Through listening well, many things in the world tell me many stories.
I think that inside and outside were the same one.
