Photography should have information and fantasy. Information means object and fantasy means photographer’s desire. I think people don’t know what they really want before they see it in reality. We can say what we want only after we actually find it. We can say that is what we have been waiting for. I want ‘good photography’. I thought about ‘good’ things. But meaning of ‘good’ is very subjective. I just wait for the moment to take a ‘good photography’ by going to galleries, looking for famous art works, reading books, and writing notes. Photography surely needs visible objects. I tried to find objects like exhibition leaflets, unused photo object i bought, my diaries, and notes. One day, I put a hot coffee on the table. Water droplet around the cup reminded me of my old memo. At that time, I’ve realized that the moment was very important. The moment is not classifiable. But this fascinating moment makes my experience to photography. I take pictures of ’library of the things that deserved to be a photography’; aphorism, essay, photography, book, memo, object for other work. The moment for short pleasure makes fantasy which can rethink and retell.
