Description
Japanese photographer Naoya Hatakeyama has spent thirty years documenting the transformation of urban landscapes through his photographs. His work explores various aspects of city growth and development, from architectural maquettes to the use of natural materials in construction. Hatakeyama's photographic series often focus on a specific facet of urban evolution, such as the impact of human intervention on the landscape or the incorporation of natural materials into building sites. Recent photographs of his hometown of Rikuzentakata, which was devastated by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, are also included in this collection. These photographs offer a poignant portrayal of the intersection of geology, architecture, and time, reflecting Hatakeyama's deeply personal connection to the ongoing transformation of the city.
