Taiji Matsue - TYO-WTC, Akaaka, 2013, Tokyo

 

TYO-WTC features just four locations, photographed over and over again from slightly different perspectives. What may sound like a boring conceptual exercise is anything but, as each perspective challenges us to question the assumptions we had just seconds before, knowing that when we turn the page the assumptions will be shifted ever so slightly once again.

Pages: 112
Place: Tokyo
Year: 2013
