In my native Japanese language, there is a word "Ryojo" which is a concept of this series. This word means a sincere and nostalgic feeling that a person feels when she or he goes on a trip. It is a noun peculiar to the Japanese language with the meaning of the emotion of travel. This series of works fantastically expresses this sentiment associated with long-distance trains at night, using the night scene of Madrid's Atocha Station as a stage. The photographs were taken using a Split Diopter to diffuse the light and create an atmosphere reminiscent of an illustration in a story.
