EMON Photo Gallery is proud to present our second group exhibition, “JinzoⅡ” showcasing middle-aged photographers who have achieved unique ways of expression in their career. In this exhibition, each of their representative works are presented, focusing on the primal aspect of the human form.
Whether male or female, young or old, there are moments when we realize the beauty of the human figure in the midst of lively activity, and also when motionless. A beauty in which senses of mystical wonder and fearful awe combine, the boundaries between each undiscernible. A mysterious energy emanates from the vehicle for life itself that we call the human body—a vital force extant beyond our daily means of recognition.
For this exhibition, the main theme is the human figure captured in photo. These unique artists aim to break out of their shells with works that surpass conventional notions of photography. We invite one and all to come and experience the flag-bearing photographers of the next generation present their unique versions of ‘now’.
