Ryo Tomo is a photographer who essentially works with the body, the materials, the abstraction and the nature all under a specific angle and framing. He is also very sensitive to environmental issues. Ryo Tomo conceptualizes his approaches towards a minimalism, a purified work where the speech itself goes to the essential. His aesthetic research is of the order of the substrate. His works on black, white and gray tend to erase the first layers of a visual observation influencing to smooth the contents. The artist wants to retain only the ultimate presence of things or situations. His photographs do not meet the dictates of technical modernity. The artist's approach wants to free himself from constraints. For him, vagueness or blur are elements that go into his game.
