Tokyo Disney-The Wa of Cute

Meghan Killeen posted an article on - May 6, 2010, 8:29 am
If candy was a deliciously animate object, it would manifest itself as Tokyo Disney. The resort’s sprawling backdrop strikes you the moment you step out of the train station.

Meghan Killeen has rated Optivion 9.7 out of 10

Meghan Killeen - The sepia raucous, here we find images that are “spooky, enchanting and alluring.” The beauteous photographs taken by Optivion are wrapped in atmospheric urban grinds or plead with a sepia toned creature or landscape. The camera eventually closes in obtaining a ballad in ambulation.So through the modest lens we see the elegant “black and white photos” and the anonymous “everyday findings” which are a bit indicative of the artist.
