Kagaya

This is an exhibition of photographs by Kagaya, a starry sky photographer who travels around the world in pursuit of a single moment of eternity. He has been expressing the magnificent miracle of the interweaving of the sky and the earth in various forms, such as photographs, videos, and planetarium programs. He has also devoted himself to popularizing astronomy, and the asteroid 11949 has been named Kagayayutaka.

This exhibition introduces representative photographic works by theme, such as "The Starry Skies of the Four Seasons" and "The Universe in a Moment."
