THE ART OF PEACE
THE ART OF PEACE
Honshu, Japan
"The mind should be like a clear mirror, reflecting things just as they are."
This quote by Morihei Ueshiba perfectly encapsulates the essence of this photograph. The image of the Torii gate floating in the tranquil waters of Japan's largest lake, with its extended exposure creating a soothing and ethereal atmosphere, invites the viewer to take a moment to reflect on the beauty of the world around them, just as a clear mirror would. The Torii gate, a sacred symbol of transition, reminds us of the fleeting nature of our existence and the importance of finding balance and inner peace. The photograph is not just a mere representation of a physical object but an invitation to transcend the material world and experience the intangible beauty of peace and harmony.

Designed to evoke stillness and spaciousness
Throughout human history, people have voyaged far and wide in search of peace and understanding of the world. In new lands, they were met with visions that filled their hearts and minds – towering mountains, soft waves, spiraling branches, and expanses of brilliant white snow. And though many of us have not embarked on extended spiritual pilgrimages, we have all experienced the expansion of our minds and hearts as we witness a breathtaking view. Embracing the power of beauty and the landscape on our mood, these photographs are designed to evoke peace and stillness - and provide the space to embrace the full breadth of our emotions.
Bring beauty into your home
Scientists have confirmed that viewing scenes of nature in art can positively impact your health and well-being almost as effectively as visiting a beautiful environment. Art allows us to enjoy our morning coffee at a temple in Kyoto and cuddle up with our pets by the stunning coast of Maui. To spend our days in the bustle of the city and return home to the tranquility of a breathtaking view. Fine art photography is more than an image - it is your calm in the chaos, an uplifting breath on a troubling day, and the stillness to embrace your most authentic emotions and nurture your best self.
