Appreciation towards Motohiro Takeda for providing the following description:

现居美国纽约，出生在日本Hamamatsu的Motohiro Takeda是一位用光特别的摄影师。他的untitled和Invitations系列将所选的城市背景（正立，倒立，侧立，俯瞰的美式城市景观）都转化为一片深浅有序的”红”，而唯一的人，则以白色的印记出现。影像上反差巨大的效果是在后期进行重叠和处理。影像中包含了一些值得凝视的细节，但又呈现出统一的”简单”。这种统一的”简单”品质在他的”River”和”Untitled (on going)”系列也能看到—–这两个系列晃眼一看全是黑影，再定睛辨别，黯淡模糊的日常景象便浮现而出，最后在心中变得清晰。

这次他给gooood分享的内容大多都不能在他的官网上看到，较为日常化和个人化，而正是这种自我和不成体系，却更有力量和更为沉静。也感谢摄影师撰文独诉“The Sun In MY Room”

暗箱是人类发明用来描绘外部世界的最古老设备之一。暗箱问世后的很长一段时间才出现摄影，尽管如此，暗箱仍然被认为是摄影的前驱。文艺复兴时代，艺术家们利用暗箱来理解投影的概念。他们尝试用画笔描绘出三维世界透过暗箱反射在画纸上的影像。对我来说，暗箱就是一台时光机。她让我感受到文艺复兴时期艺术家们的感受。唯一不同的是，我用光敏纸代替颜料和画笔，直接将光变成了图像。

一天，我在暗箱室完成自画像之后在墙上发现了奇怪的白点，当时房间灯是开着的。我疑惑了很久，不知道白点来自哪里，然后突然意识到其实是从窗户小孔投射进来的阳光影像。这时我第一次接触太阳影像的经历。确切地说，是跑进我房间的太阳……

为了在不同的光敏纸上捕捉太阳，我对穿过针孔投进房间的光线进行塑造以创造出体现物质本质的影像。日本盆景—矮木的艺术，艺术家们通过改变树木来展现其最真实的本性。他们将矮木修剪并重塑成最简单的形态而不留下一丝手工的痕迹，因此观看者们得以欣赏并体会到树木的本质。这些太阳影像是我在房间内用暗箱对阳光进行重塑的结果，直接反映了太阳的本质。

第一次在墙上发现太阳之后，我便开始了追逐太阳的旅程，后来我慢慢发现事实上这也是追逐季节的旅程。春、夏、秋、冬，太阳在天空变换着位置，自然也随之改变。春天新芽绽放，秋天华丽飘落。这些发生在外部世界的自然现象在我的房间里通过倒立的影像被同时记录了下来。

The Sun In MY Room

Camera obscura is one of the oldest human device to depict the outside world. Although photography was invented long after the invention of camera obscura, it can be said that the realization of the device was promising the emergence of photography. In renaissance era, artists used it to understand the concept of perspective. They tried to transform the three dimensional world onto their two dimensional campus by tracing the light with their paint brushes. Camera obscure is, in a way, a time machine for me. It allows me to experience what renaissance artists experienced. Instead of the paints and brushes, I use light sensitive papers to transform the light into photographic imagery.

One day after I finished making my self-portrait in my room camera obscura, I found that there was a strange white dot on the wall. The room lights were on by then. I was wondering what that was for a while and realized that it was a projected image of sun coming from the pinhole on the window. That’s how I first encountered the picture of the sun. The sun came into my room.

To capture the sun on various kind of photographic papers, I feel like I am sculpting the light coming into my room from the pinhole to create the image that expresses the essence of the subject. In Japanese Bonsai, the art of dwarf tree, artists alter a tree to reveal true nature of tree. They cut and re-shape the dwarf tree to its simplest form without leaving a trace of human hand so that viewers can appreciate and understand what tree truly is. These pictures of the sun are the results of my efforts of sculpting and transmuting the sunlight in my camera obscure and my room to represent the shape of the sun in its own nature.

After I saw the sun on my wall, I started following it through out years and by doing so I realized that I was also following the seasons. Spring, summer, fall and winter, as sun changes its position in the sky, the nature changes. Leafs bloom on a tree in spring and fall in autumn. It all happens in the world outside yet at the same time it happens in my room too as a mirrored image of the world upside down.
