My Tokyo - Curtis Christophersen

Intended to celebrate Tokyo through the talented eyes of close friends, Curtis Christophersen is the inaugural photographer in our ‘My Tokyo’ exhibition series. In this diptych , Curtis intimately captures the energy and choreography of the Awa Odori dancers as they move through the streets of Tokyo accompanied by the shamisen lute, taiko drums, shinobue flute and kane bell wearing traditional obon dance costumes.

Curtis is a Creative Director and Photographer that has been living in Tokyo for 13 years and has been documenting a very personal portrait of life in our home city. See more work by Curtis below and on his Instagram and Website.
