Artist's Comments

I was listening to Sufjan Stevens "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" earlier tonight, which made me think of this photo I made this spring. It was in Tokyo, at one of Shinjuku Stations many entrances, some 3 million people walks in and out of this station every day. Here I saw this man. What makes him speciel? Well apart from the mans sympathetic face, Ole (my travel mate) was in Tokyo 2 years ago, where he made a great portrait of the exact same man, in a completely different area of Tokyo. What are the chances of randomly meeting the same guy, years apart, in this 35 million people metropole?

Check out Ole's portrait too! [link]

夜思

床前明月光,
疑是地上霜.
挙頭望明月,
低頭思故郷.

Rofl, well, apparently he gets his photo taken often. He should be a famous model by now. "Homeless chic."
