Photographer's Profile

Tooru Kuroda

Japan

I am a contemporary artist. I'm currently working on a series called "Amplified Photo." Why am I using the method of "photography"? The reason is that with other art methods, the opportunity to view the actual work is limited to "exhibitions" or "owning". On the other hand, with photography, the work itself can be viewed online. In other words, it is possible to deliver a message directly to many people. Many people say they can't live without music. But how many people can't live without photography or art? Not only that, there are many people who look at photography and art and say they don't understand it. My photography skills are imperfect, but I would like to make up for what is lacking with ideas and ingenuity and create works that make people think, "I want to hang that photo in my room!" To deliver happiness through photos. "Amplified Photo" is my creative experiment exploring "the relationship and possibilities" of photography and art. And this will be my life's work for the rest of my life. Exhibitions：Tokyu Department Store Main Branch, Daimaru Department Store Kyoto Branch, Wacoal Ginza Art Space, and many others
