"I am regularly struck by a powerful revelation: all living beings-and indeed all existence in this world-are of equal value. Ranking animals according to their intelligence is nothing more than a human invention, a convenient system of measurement." (Yamamoto Masao)
I write about Yamamoto Masao whenever I can; his great work is enchanting.
The artist is indeed not afraid of wonder at the spectacle of nature, nourished by the childlike spirit within him, nor of bold compositions.
His photographs can be considered as visual haikus of remarkable delicacy.
