Hitoshi Fug is a visionary Japanese photographer. His masterpiece, KAMI, is a complex and precise work that takes viewers on a journey into an altered reality. Fugo's profound still-life study challenges us to question the nature of destruction and the limits of human control. Born in Kanagawa, Japan, in 1947, Fugo is a true master of his craft, having honed his skills studying photography at Nihon University in Tokyo.
