Allow us to present Light, the latest series of work by photographer Kiiro, opening at EMON Photo Gallery.

Kiiro has consistently pursued cosmos flowers throughout his photographic career for their touching, understated fragility that hides an indomitable robustness, and for the way in which they awaken distant memories. Kiiro’s maiden work Opera received a prestigious International Fine Art Photography award. With Light, Kiiro continues to express a unique lyricism born of his enchantment with the various properties of flowers, and expressed through a deft mastery of the photomontage format. Light comes to us as a continuation of the Japanese aesthetic so skillfully depicted in his second series Elegance of Silence. Various hues are captured with light particles that spread to every corner of each layered print, woven together in a way reminiscent of a tapestry.
