St. Yoshiwara works on a personal photographic artproject. This site is the preliminary result of a journey into the essence of imaging photographs.

"I make pictures of photographs. Through this concept, I create a gap between the viewer and the photographic reality; the reality what once was photographed becomes a genuine fake reality, thus causing an inner time/space confusion. Photography also allows me to think about me: who I am, who I used to be, where I might end up. It's a quest for any identity."

"Reproducing the image allows me to think about essential aspects and problems in photography. What is photographic reality ? Is discussing 'reality' still relevant in the age of Digitalism ? It's the big Classic, wrapped in a early digital jacket: what is photography ?"

"St. Yoshiwara's fotografisch werk kan  omschreven worden als een universele en, bij uitbreiding, persoonlijke  recherche naar identiteit. Zij fotografeert foto's waar ze de aandacht wil op vestigen, omwille van verschillende motieven, zoals oa : nieuwsgierigheid, verwondering, walging, geilheid.

Zijn al haar foto's zelfportretten ?  Misschien wel.."
