Keita Sugiura is a promising young photographer who won the Victor Pincheck Award at Geisai Museum #2 and the bronze prize at Geisai #11 in autumn 2008. His sharp yet delicate works, printed on large-sized mat sheets, carry a distinctive darkness, which cannot be expressed on a glossy C-print.

"Forest" is a series of photographs portraying dusky woods, taken immediately before nightfall. While capturing expressions of a dark, tranquil forest, these works also realistically and mysteriously convey its moisture and thick air clinging onto one stepping into it.

Realigning the forest series shown at Geisai Museum #2 and also presenting some large-sized prints, this exhibition will deliver a nippy atmosphere of one winter day.
