Hiroshi Sugimoto creates photography that he describes as “time exposed”, serving as a time capsule for events in time. His minimalist compositions reflect on the transience of life and the journey between life and death.

Taking inspiration from the sleek lines of modern architecture, and the Surrealist movement, we love how Sugimoto draws from art history when creating his photographs. The artist uses extremely long exposure times to create that obscured, mystical feeling in his photographs. Sugimoto was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. He studied politics and sociology before retraining as an artist four years later. He received his BFA in Fine Arts at the Art Center College of Design in California. Sugimoto then settled in New York, where his career as an artist would begin.

What is Archival Giclée
Giclée (/ʒiːˈkleɪ/ zhee-KLAY) is a neologism, ultimately derived from the French word gicleur, coined in 1991 by printmaker Jack Duganne for fine art digital prints made using inkjet printers. The name was originally applied to fine art prints created on a modified Iris printer in a process invented in the late 1980s. It has since been used widely to mean any fine-art printing, usually archival, printed by inkjet. It is often used by artists, galleries, and print shops for their high quality printing, but is also used generically for art printing of any quality.
