Animal head bones projected on a black background, animals soaked in liquid in a bottle, an old mannequin ... "We have devoted ourselves to emerging from the darkness. The light that illuminates those bones must be appropriate. It must not be overly hit and diffusely reflected. It stays on its surface and makes their appearance appropriate. And I was determined to make it stand out delicately. No more, no less, I will capture their true image in the picture, "says Ueda. The binding using thick cardboard is by Kenya Hara.
