EIJI UEDA (San Francisco)


When I work with my camera at night, my photographs capture a surreal beauty, a new perspective on light and shadow to that of the world under sunshine.

The subject matter of my night photography portrays natural moonlight and artificial light sources such as neon signs, street lamps and room lights. I choose to remove any human presence in the photographs; however, the pictures depict all things man-made.

When I am in the act of taking my photographs, I am filled with a sense of humanity, beauty, harmony and silence. When people see my work, I’d like them to be conscious the universal scenes that are around us.
