Takashi Homma

Shonan International Village, Kanagawa, 1995-8.
Makuhari Bay Town 4, 1995.

Takashi Homma photographs newly built suburban housing in Japan and the highly strategised landscaping around it. Particularly looking at the houses at the edge of the developments. Looks at dehumanising impact and the politics of housing developments, and the industrial use of land.

"He raises questions about our desire, when we are on holiday, to feel like we are in the ungovernable forces of nature, but always safe in the knowledge that our creature comforts are within reach." Charlotte Cotton, from The Photograph as Contemporary Art.
