A Shiga-born photographer Reiko Yagi has always been pointing her lens at Lake Biwa, Ja-pan’s largest lake in Shiga Prefecture. Standing alone in front of her work, you could feel as if you were in the scene yourself as the real world around you was fading away.
The ethereal atmosphere of her artwork will lead you to somewhere far away― somewhere in an immemorial past when the lake was not yet given its name, or maybe a place deep inside you where you have something inexpressible.
Caught up in the incessant business of your daily life, you might hardly find time to go deep inside yourself. Yagi’s works, however, will let you think even of the day when you will leave this world.
Viewed through her photos, which exude warmth and tenderness, the journey to the other world appears peaceful.
Among many photographers taking picture of Lake Biwa, only few can capture the lake in such scenery―as seen in Yagi’s works―that goes straight to viewers’ hearts. In a modern world flooded with information, we might easily lose ourselves. Yagi’s artwork may be a ray of light that illuminates our forgotten self.
More obviously, Lake Biwa itself seems delighted to be photographed by Yagi, so as to touch people’s hearts..”
BIWAKO BIENNALE General Director Yoko Nakata
Here are details about the work of Japanese artist Reiko Yagi.
The objects of Reiko Yagi interest are intimate environmental connections. Places and spaces of her fine art landscapes talk of the irreversible flows of life. She reaches the wisdom and beauty of imperfections with the simplicity, tranquility, and naturalness. Reiko Yagi derives her photography from the philosophical principles of the Zen tradition and her fine art landscapes reflect the ‘Wabi and Sabi’ aesthetic concept of appreciating beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete" in nature. She discreetly suggests qualities of impermanence, asymmetry, and imperfection. A pinhole camera without lenses is the tool she uses to render these emotions.
The artwork is printed from the color Analog on custom handmade Ise-Washi paper, conferring a special material quality to the photograph.

Reiko Yagi
Japanese photographer Reiko Yagi derived her photography from the philosophical principles of the Zen tradition. Her fine art landscapes reflect the ‘Wabi and Sabi’ aesthetic concept. She discreetly suggests us qualities of impermanence, asymmetry, and imperfection. A pinhole camera without lenses is a natural and most reasonable
choice.
The objects of her interest are an environmental issue. Places and spaces of her fine art landscapes are the irreversible flows of life. She reaches the wisdom and beauty of imperfections with the simplicity, tranquility, and naturalness.
Those are the main aesthetic principles that we can amplify in her images. Her photos made as modest and rustic but harmonized fragments of the bigger picture. Reiko Yagi focuses on the slightly blurred fragments of the landscapes that refer the self-imposed isolation and imperfection as a matter of the choice. The style she built is the contentment with the simple things and contemplative principles. With the melancholic intuitive beauty, Reiko Yagi reveals the visual form we could easily compare with haiku poetry.
The accent of the Reiko Yagi fine art photography is on the spiritual level. Her landscapes exist as a private spiritual
journey. The atmospheres created as universal flux we usually call the circle of life. Senior Curator (Croatia EU), Photolucida Critical Mass 2018 prescreener and juror (Portland, Oregon US)

A resolutely minimalist and suggestive approach to get to the essential. Not trying to show a subject for what it is, but for what it expresses. This is my way of telling stories, of translating my sensibility”. J-M. Lenoir
A passion for nature from an early age led Lenoir to photography as a means to capture magical moments of nature and wildlife. Starting with wildlife and wide spaces, he developed his own vision of photography.
Landscape photography is an eternal quest for atmosphere where the light and the quest of beauty are key references, his aesthetic landmark. His photographic intention relies on his magnetic attraction for wide spaces combined with his quest of beautiful lights.
A way that inspires him and his instinct of freedom.
In photography, he is looking for simple pictures, which go straight to the subject core, with very few things in the frame.
Lenoir follows a suggestive approach: he does not try to show a subject as it is, but to share what it expresses. It is his way of telling stories and conveying his sensibility, like his recent work “Evanescence”.
Combining his passion for pictures with rugged landscapes, he organizes and guides photo tours with Photographes du Monde agency for seven years. From north of Europe (Scotland, Norway, Finland) to South america (Chile and Bolivia),his photographic world leads him into areas of wilderness from where he draws his main source of inspiration.
Lenoir is an ambassador for Fujifilm cameras...
