Editor's Note by Satoshi KOGANEZAWA


A camera is a device that cuts out a moment. Tamotsu Fujii's “BIRD SONG” teaches to us that it is a camera by which the moment of the reality that might be transfigured to another one in one second is cut out as it is previously. The exhibition shows the photographs of migrants which Fujii has taken for 4 years since 2006. The photograph of the migrants flying in a orderly crowd shows moment beauty to think that it is likely to collapse at the next moment and to leave. There is a photograph where the migrant is not included either even if it says. Or, it might be scenery that the migrant left. The outside light was exhibited, and on the entering wall in the vicinity of the pane of the second floor, the photograph of the Nipponia nippon composition was chosen and had been exhibited as for the maximum though would head for the outside by the migrant in the future and flew away. The photograph permits our being made imagine time afterwards cutting out a certain moment. At the wall beside the window of the second floor with a full sun light, a photograph in which migrants would just fly away was chosen and exhibited. It seemed like that the migrant was about to flying over the next door from the galley window. We are permitted to imagine the time afterwards though the photograph cuts out a certain moment.
