Kenji Sato
Kenji Sato (born 1978) has traveled to more than 120 countries around the world, photographing and writing about all kinds of "strange things" from a natural history and aesthetic perspective. His photographs of the unknown, taken through his never-ending spirit of inquiry into diverse cultures and architecture, strange landscapes created by nature, and people with strange-looking customs, have given us many surprises and discoveries and aroused our curiosity.
Kenji Sato's strange journey, which began at Area 51 in the U.S., marks the 20-year milestone of his career. As a photographer and writer of rare quality, Sato has gained the support of people of all ages, and in recent years has expanded his activities in the media, including television, magazines, and radio.
This exhibition will feature his popular and well-known work "The Heritage of the Odd World," which was published under the title coined by Kenji Sato, as well as "The World," which captures his travels over the past 20 years from a simple perspective, and special photographs of mysterious objects from around the world, which will be on display. The exhibition will also feature special photographs of magical objects from various locations around the world.
