荒木マサヒロ

Masahiro Araki

He has been photographing the starry skies of Amami since 2013, hoping to convey the beauty of the starry skies he discovered in Amami, where the lunar calendar culture remains. He wants to leave these views for children 100 years from now, and has started a project to preserve this feeling in the form of a photo storybook.
He currently has 24 photo stories. The works were printed on A1 size paper and exhibited at a solo exhibition in Kyoto. This marks his third KG+. New photos are released every time.Among them is a shocking photo that reveals his side as a journalist!
Works from his new series, "The Moon and Washi," have been added, and it will be exciting to see what stories will emerge.
