EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black and white portrait captured by Toru Matsunaga, we are confronted with the enigmatic image of "another myself". The photograph showcases a woman, her face adorned with bold lipstick and striking makeup. However, what immediately catches our attention is the shattered mirror that surrounds her. Fragments of glass form a web of cracks and shards, symbolizing decay and degeneration. The broken mirror serves as a metaphorical barrier between reality and reflection, challenging our perception of self-identity. As we gaze upon this fragmented image, we can't help but question whether it represents an internal struggle or external pressures to conform to societal expectations. Matsunaga's masterful use of monochrome enhances the emotional intensity within the frame. The absence of color allows us to focus solely on the subject's expressive lips and mouth – perhaps hinting at unspoken words or hidden desires. This thought-provoking portrait not only explores themes of identity but also invites us to contemplate our own fractured selves in a world where appearances often mask inner complexities. Through his artistic lens, Matsunaga captures both vulnerability and strength in this mesmerizing portrayal of an Asian woman navigating her personal journey against societal norms.
