“Made in China” Walter Edwards (ウォルター・エドワーズ)

アメリカ生まれ、２００３年来日。
以降ますます東洋の伝統的な文化やアジアの歴史に興味が沸く。

２００６年９月、初めて中国に行き、都市の近代的な生活や田舎に今も残る昔の中国を見たり、人々と言葉を交わしながら、写真を撮るにつれ私の気持ちは高揚していった。写真を介して文化交流が出来るのではないだろうか。

今回の写真展は上海と西安(シアン)と少林寺で僕が経験し、心動かされたことを展示する。

是非、白黒バーに来て下さい。



I was born in the US and came to Japan in 2003. After arriving in Japan, I became more interested in the traditional cultures of the East and the history behind everything. In September of 2006, I traveled to China for the first time. As I was able to observe the city-life, see the remnants of old China in the countryside, and converse with people, my mood was elevated each time I took another photograph. I think that photos are a medium for cultural exchange.


This exhibition is a portrayal of Shanghai, Xi-an, and the Shaolin Temple. It is a portrayal of the experiences I had in China that moved me.
