# 9 - Eikoh Hosoe



Eikoh Hosoe is a post war Japanese Photographers and a filmmaker who recognised for the effect of psychological that explores of a mature themes such as death and erotic. He was born as Toshihio Hosoe but changed it after the war to create a new brand of himself. With the new change of his name, it would also means for a new start for Japan after the Second World War. 

His color scheme is black&white. It is used to create emotion in his photos. Ironically, I can sense humour in his photos even though it has a dark setting.  I think his light setting in his photographs are very well executed because in most of his photographs, the light plays the focal point in his photographs. Because it has no colors, the light has play a role in capturing the emotions of the peoples.
