METAMORPHOSIS

This series of photographs were taken at Keihin industrial region, near Tokyo. Smoke billows consistently from chimneys of heavy industrial factories that gives us a negative image of pollution, productivity and power. I have looked at these factories for its industrial beauty. During the day, pipes and structures create geometric patterns with its lines and textures and the scale on weathered facilities gives an air of dignity. At night, the facilities change to a mysterious cosmic fortress that reminds us of science fiction films in the 80's.
