ONCE A TORMENTED ARTIST ON THE BRINK OF BURNOUT, EMERGED FROM HIS PERIOD OF SECLUSION IN AN ATTEMPT TO BE REINVIGORATED AND REDEFINED AS A PHOTOGRAPHER.

BEFORE DISAPPEARING FROM THE SCRUTINY OF THE WORLD WHO LOOKED AT HIM AS A LUCKY ARTIST THAT ONLY FOLLOWED THE PATH HIS PARENTS MADE FOR HIM, YUTA SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME NOT MAKING SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE. HE BARELY HAS FRIENDS HE CAN TRULY TRUST AND OFTEN GOES CLUBBING PRETENDING TO LIKE THE PEOPLE WHO ONLY WAS WITH HIM DUE TO HIS STATUS AND FAME. HE'S A SELF CENTERED , WHO'S ALWAYS JUST EMPTY AND GOES THROUGH THE FLOW AS IF IT'S WHAT IS LEFT OF HIM. 

HOWEVER, AFTER SPENDING TIME IN THE MOUNTAINS AND THE RURAL AREAS, THERE'S A NEW FOUND SOFTNESS IN HIS HEART. TRYING TO OPEN HIS WALLS TO LET PEOPLE IN.

NAKAMOTO YUTA WAS BORN INTO A WORLD OF ARTISTIC BRILLIANCE, HIS LINEAGE TRACING BACK TO A RENOWNED PIANIST FATHER AND AN INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED OPERA SINGER MOTHER. THE BOY WAS RAISED IN AN ENVIRONMENT STEEPED IN ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE AND EXPECTATION, YUTA'S EARLY YEARS WERE MARKED BY BOTH PRIVILEGE AND PRESSURE. MEMORIES OF HIS CHILDHOOD WAS FILLED WITH EXTRA HOMEWORK AND ART CLASSES. HIS PARENTS, WHILE SUPPORTIVE, UNINTENTIONALLY LAID THE FOUNDATION FOR A COMPLEX AND CONFLICTED RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS OWN ART. FROM A YOUNG AGE, HE DISPLAYED AN UNCANNY TALENT FOR PHOTOGRAPHY. HIS ABILITY TO CAPTURE MOMENTS OF RAW EMOTION AND UNFILTERED TRUTH THROUGH HIS LENS SET HIM ON A TRAJECTORY TOWARD ARTISTIC STARDOM. BEGINNING HIS JOURNEY FROM PAINTING THEN EVENTUALLY DEVELOPING INTEREST IN THE VIOLIN, ONLY TO STRAY AWAY FROM ALL THAT AND SETTLE WITH PHOTOGRAPHY.

HOWEVER, WITH RECOGNITION CAME EXPECTATION. YUTA'S PARENTS, DRIVEN BY A DESIRE TO UPHOLD THE FAMILY'S ARTISTIC LEGACY, INADVERTENTLY PLACED A HEAVY BURDEN ON HIS SHOULDERS. THE PRESSURE TO EXCEL, TO PRODUCE MASTERPIECE AFTER MASTERPIECE, WEIGHED HEAVILY ON HIM. AS HE GREW OLDER, THE JOY HE ONCE FOUND IN HIS CRAFT BEGAN TO FADE. THE CAMERA, ONCE AN EXTENSION OF HIS SOUL AND AN ESCAPE, BECAME A TOOL OF OBLIGATION. HIS BREAKING POINT CAME AFTER HIS MOST RECENT EXHIBITION, WHERE CRITICS LAUDED HIS WORK AS "TECHNICALLY IMPECCABLE" AND "ARTISTICALLY PROFOUND," YET YUTA FELT A PROFOUND EMPTINESS. THE PIECES THAT HUNG ON THE WALLS WERE NOT HIS OWN; THEY WERE THE RESULT OF AN INTERNAL STRUGGLE TO MEET EXTERNAL EXPECTATIONS. THE DISSONANCE BETWEEN HIS PUBLIC IMAGE AND HIS PRIVATE EMOTIONS FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH HIM. "WHEN WILL YOU GET STARTED ON THAT NEW SET OF PIECES?" WAS HIS MOTHER'S FIRST QUESTION AFTER SEEING EACH OTHER FOR THE FIRST TIME IN TWO YEARS. YUTA HAS DELIBERATELY WITHDRAWN FROM THE PUBLIC EYE. SEEKING SOLACE AND RENEWAL, HE RETREATED TO HIS OWN SHELL, HOWEVER, AFTER TRAVELLING TO THE MOUNTAINS OF JAPAN, HE RECENTLY CAME BACK TO HIS HOME. ONCE A TORMENTED ARTIST ON THE BRINK OF BURNOUT, EMERGED FROM HIS PERIOD OF SECLUSION TO ATTEMPT TO BE REINVIGORATED AND REDEFINED PHOTOGRAPHER.
