| book description |
""I have been photographing the world’s sacred places since 1979. My lifelong theme in the photography is “beauty of impermanenceâ€. I find a beauty in flower, as its life is only several days and can see the change every day. Even the stone monuments of sacred places, after a few thousand years, it starts to turn into sands just by natural elements, sun, wind and rain. I find it beautiful. People’s life is somewhat short, and knowing there is a limit of life, I see people shine within the time. As if the time polish a stone into a jewel. I see the same with people. My photographs in this show and a book, is a homage to a beautiful life"". - Kenro Izu Kenro Izu (Osaka, 1949) is a Japanese-born photographer based in the United States.
