Passage 3

Daido Moriyama Tights in Shimotakaido black and white gelatin silver print showing fishnet-clad legs in high-contrast close-up.

How to Create a Beautiful Picture 6: Tights in Shimotakaido by Daido Moriyama, originally shot in 1987 and printed in 2011, is a gelatin silver print that exemplifies Moriyama’s raw, high-contrast photographic style. This close-up image of legs clad in fishnet tights captures the rhythmic interplay of light and shadow, texture and form. The abstraction created by the pattern transforms the human body into a graphic composition, evoking both sensuality and anonymity. Moriyama’s street photography often explores the tension between eroticism and urban alienation, and this work is a bold example of that inquiry.
