Sho Sasaki
Is this a dream? Or a dream within a dream?
I’m drawn into people who has ambiguous qualities in them,
when they stand in front of a camera, they either become very crystal clear of their own
image or have some sort of ambiguity like clouds drifting.
They live their lives with trial and error and I think that’s very wonderful. I have my
moments of lost and ambiguity of my own personal life, but when I meet people in the
same way, I think to myself maybe that’s alright.
What unexpected situations made you who you are today?
When I was a child, my parents took me to a movie theatre close to my house, I saw
Princess Mononoke.
It had these old fabrics and pottery. That’s when I was got really into the primitive design
aesthetics.
What gets you excited and driven to achieve?
Works of art that I saw that gave me a huge impact, like timeless movies or music for
example,
I would like to make a timeless art too.
How has your style changed overtime?
It never did, and probably never will.
I always liked what I liked..
What’s the most interesting thing about you that we wouldn’t learn from your work alone?
I always want learn about other people I meet, but I really don’t understand about myself.
Till this day I’m trying to learn who my real self is, maybe looking into my own work is
the best I can understand who I am.
What aspects of your work do you find the most fulfilling?
Creating as a team, and when the results are beyond my expectations.
