The 2024 Minimalist Photography Awards(20 Winners)

#1. 1st Place Winner: Torii by Ulana Switucha

Torii gates in Japan are elements in the landscape that symbolize the essence of Japanese culture and spirituality. In the Shinto spiritual tradition, Japanese torii gates are a symbol of the transition from the secular world to a sacred space. Honouring the natural realm, the simplicity and shape of a torii in the landscape draws the senses and spirit to embrace nature’s power and beauty. A minimalist approach draws the viewer into peaceful meditation.

일본의 도리이 문은 일본 문화와 영성의 본질을 상징하는 풍경 속의 요소입니다. 신토의 영적 전통에서 일본의 도리이 문은 세속 세계에서 신성한 공간으로의 전환을 상징합니다. 자연 영역을 존중하는 풍경 속 도리이의 단순함과 모양은 감각과 정신을 끌어들여 자연의 힘과 아름다움을 받아들입니다. 미니멀리스트적 접근 방식은 시청자를 평화로운 명상으로 이끕니다.
