These photos focus on the solitude facing society today.
One day I suddenly felt a sense of analogue, looking at the steam of New York.
So I looked at New York with a new perspective and I caught sight of people passing over water steam in the street.
And at that moment, I got the loneliness of the city with my inspiration.
I can emphasize that more solitude through facial expressions and movements of people who walking in the smoke.
Although I am not living in New York, I have found New York many times, so I could see New York with a new perspective.
I was able to make a photo essay about this loneliness too.
Finally, I continue to ask myself these questions.
Why do urban people loneliness? Although loneliness is often defined as an ostracized by others,
The loneliness of urban life is a distancing from other people rather than being bullied.
I think the loneliness of urban life is the nostalgia for the hometown and the distance of relationship with others.
