Ken Koba is an emerging photographer based in Tokyo, Japan. His work focuses on consciously visualizing the objects and scenes that people overlook unintentionally, questioning the significance of “existence.” By capturing subtle presences hidden in the city, emotional margins, and things fading into oblivion, he explores the relationship between light and shadow, the solitude required to confront truth, and the reconfiguration of vision and perception. Through both photography and written expression, he continues to examine the visual sensibilities inherent to humanity — our sensitivity to the distinctiveness and dignity of existence in contemporary life.
