"Sacri legni nel giardino nascosto" Photo project con James Robert Batten

Artistic Photo Project with
James Robert Batten

James Robert Batten, an international artist, photographer, and Swiss-Australian architect, studied contemporary photography at the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) and collaborated with Japanese artist Shoko to create three captivating works.


The depicted images are the result of initial documentation of natural scenes in Tokyo and Milan.


Subsequently, Shoko completed the works by painting with gold and silver leaves directly onto prints made on bamboo paper in a picturesque Japanese garden attached to a local temple. This fusion of Swiss and Japanese perspectives, made possible by their shared passion for nature, is evident in the works that respect traditional Japanese sensibilities and celebrate the unique connection between culture and the natural environment.
