I’m Davide Sasso and this is my "Tokyo Dream Distance" photographic project, a collection of photos that I took in Japan.

During this trip I didn’t have a tour guide or a local expert, I already knew some places, many others I didn’t. This was a conscious decision because I wanted to experience Japan from scratch, even if it meant losing myself in the many alleys of Tokyo. This also led me to photograph and see places that are not so touristy, if I could go back I would make this choice again.

This journey has been the most beautiful of my life so far and I can’t wait to go back to Japan. I would certainly like to come back to Tokyo again, there is still a lot to see, the city is really endless, but I’d also like to see places outside of Tokyo, like Osaka and Kyoto. So thank you Japan, until the day we meet again!

This was my first time in Japan and I would love to go back whenever I can. I have always loved this country, the culture, the food… There are so many wonderful places. From Tokyo to Osaka, Yokohama to Kyoto, these are just some of the amazing cities in this country. Each one is unique and I hope to visit as many as possible!

I love cinema. Among my favorite films are Akira, Enter the Void, Fallen Angels, Ghost in the Shell, and Blade Runner. All these films have an incredible atmosphere that has always fascinated me, so I tried to recreate these aesthetics in my shots.

Tokyo is a very different city from those of my country, so shooting here was really a challenge. But I must say that it is a city full of lights and colors, and that gives a lot of interesting ideas for both day and night shots. Also, it is a city that never stands still, where something is always happening, so it was really fun to shoot there. I would define it as a big playground for photographers!

I have many ideas and projects that I would like to realize. One of these that I am working on is called “Anime City Pop” and collects a series of shots that replicate the aesthetics of anime as much as possible, in particular, those of Studio Ghibli which I love very much!

I love the black care on the right ... it almost looks like a cat ready to pounce ... & then the wheels. Beautiful!

Beautiful composition. The dominant colors are so complimentary it has inspired me to use them as the color scheme in my next art project. Also, major Blade Runner vibes.
