Shiga Lieko

Abstract

"Shiga Lieko is highly acclaimed for her thoughtful and earnest attitude toward her reality and production, her exploration of the equivalence between human spirituality and the nature of the photographic medium, and an original perspective that cuts across the nature of photography and the body. She considers how modern society has suppressed the human spirit in the wake of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the reconstruction that has followed. The thought behind her creative process condenses important elements for reflecting on the society in which we find ourselves, including concepts like human nature, center and periphery, death and mourning, regulation and freedom, and harmony with nature."-- Provided by publisher.
