Photographer – Daidō Moriyama
Japanese photographer Daidō Moriyama, of the innovative photographers’ group VIVO, boasts a stunning archive of jarring work consisting of gritty, black and white images depicting the proverbial forgotten alleyways of city life. Born in 1937, his stark lens unflinchingly explores everyday objects, cultural interactions, and the contradictory nature that shape his perception of post-World War II Japan.
