Syoin KAJII (*1976, Japan) NAMI 025-026, 2004 Lambda Print with Diasec Face, Diptych (two works) 56 x 168 cm (22 x 66 1/8 in.) Edition of 6; Ed. no. 5/6 About NAMI: NAMI is a series of photos of waves around the shores of Sado Island in Japan. The photographer, a young Buddhist monk named Syoin Kajii, watches the water patiently, waiting for a moment of surprise. The photographs are truly stunning.

By carefully gauging the speed of the wind and level of the wave, he waits for nature to create the image. These works are close ups, the artist is practically in the water. Syoin Kajil is the winner of the first Foil Award, for which the prize is the publication of NAMI.
