Manga street, Japan
2016
A closer look at the work
A wall covered with manga figures and lettering rises above a dark band of asphalt. Large white road markings answer the dense printed surface above. The nearly frontal view leaves the street as an open interval between viewer and wall.
The contrast reveals two uses of public signs. Images on the wall attract attention; markings on the road direct behaviour. Both use strong contrasts and simplified forms. By bringing them into one picture, the photograph invites reflection on how much of everyday looking is already designed.
