Photorealistic Paintings focusing on New York’s Subway System by Hisaya Taira

by Desmond Ignaz 2014-07-16, 7:53 AMupdated 2018-02-07, 10:27 PM

 

“In America, there are ordinary scenes of extraordinary quality. When I first walked the suburbs, I was fascinated by the empty space—something that Japan doesn’t have-that felt like suddenly being freed from an enclosure. I was sure that what I was looking for was here, and from that point America came to dominate my everyday scenes.” – Hisaya Taira
