I went to see Emily Allchurch’s Tokyo Story. She appropriated Utagawa Hiroshige’s “100 Famous Views of Edo” which was popular 150 years ago. There was an idealised beauty in them. Tradition and transition, past and present, harmony and conflict... The backlit presentation of her 4 images gives more colourful rendition of this idealised reality. I then visited Hotshoe Gallery for “On The Ephemeral In Photography”. It is such a poetic theme. Time is the fourth dimension in our space and everything is ephemeral whether we notice or not. The collection of the photos is quite special and the gallery space mixed the magazine working place as well.
