omi kim: Osaka Romantics

The first photography collection from the singular photographer, omi kim. A familiar cityscape transforms into vibrant colors. Everyday Osaka is transformed into a cyberpunk world. This is a photography collection that perfectly captures the ever-increasing energy of the city with ultra-high saturation visuals. The setting is Osaka──a cityscape that is endlessly, profoundly and sharply changing, portrayed as a "real-life science fiction movie". Rain-drenched neon, rusty pipes, and the cool blues lurking in the business district. The sight of electronic lights emanating through humid air is the very definition of cyberpunk. This book is structured like a movie, spanning from nightfall until dawn. With each turn of the page, familiar Osaka shows a slightly different face. The result is not fantasy, but the "actual future" that we inhabit together. Experience for yourself the story of a city where light and shadow, solitude and silence intersect.*This book is published by Geijutsu Shinbunsha.
