It's 2049 in Shinjuku, New Tokyo. The country is being rebuilt after a series of insurrections against the New Tokyo Government. The country is thriving thanks to the adoption of cryptocurrency, and people are now able to live a more fruitful life and hopefully forget the battles and war before. A boom in holographic technology and physical augmentation is making New Tokyo a powerhouse in the global economy.
As you may have been able to tell, I am a big fan of science fiction, and I'm inspired by movies such as Blade Runner, Akira, and Ghost in the Shell. With Shinjuku 2049, I wanted to create my version of a futuristic Tokyo. I took this photograph at night using an infrared camera; hence, the colors are different than what the normal eye would see. I love the vibrance of the colors and hope to show people more of my imagination through photography.
Comes with a signed print of the original photograph, please be sure to contact me if you win this piece!
