Daikichi is also a photographer of bizarre and beautiful scenarios featuring sea creatures and insects. I am privellaged that Mr Amano could answer a few of my questions because, by his own admission, his English isnt that good.
Daikichi Amano: I think both which are art and photography.
AR: The first Genki-Genki film was Love by the Scalpel Dog. I see that this is not available anymore on your site. Do you regret making the film?

photo shooting, therefore, I have changed to sea creatures.

AR: How did you come up with the idea of using sea creatures and insects in your work?
