Photographer Shinichi Maruyama is well known for his colliding liquid photography and immortalizing moments split seconds before they are lost to gravity. In his latest series ‘Nude’, he I tries to capture the beauty of both the human body’s figure and its motion. The figure in the image, which is formed into something similar to a sculpture, is created by combining 10,000 individual photographs of a dancer. By putting together uninterrupted individual moments, the resulting image as a whole will appear to be something different from what actually exists. With regard to these two viewpoints, a connection can be made to a human being’s perception of presence in life.
