Hiroshi Sugimoto – Casa Batillo II – Gaudi, 1998

Sugimoto’s main influence was surrealism and Dada (which was a movement characterized by the rejection of old forms of artmaking in favour of an anti-art that asserts art’s irrelevance and explores new forms of creation).  I really like the surreal feeling Sugimoto has creating with his photographs. When I am out taking my photographs I will experiment with different ways to create this look. I will try and take photos out of focus and use glass or other objects in front of the lens.
