Hiroshi Sugimoto has explored ideas of time, empiricism and metaphysics through a surreal and formalistic approach since the 1970s.
A self-described habitual self-interlocutor, Sugimoto uses the camera as a bridge between abstract questions and the quiet, comical nature of modern everyday life.
Whether formally photographing Madame Tussauds wax figures and the wildlife scenes at the American Museum of Natural History, or opening the lens of his eight-by-ten camera to capture a two-hour-long.
