The Rozou Project is a street photography initiative that brings art back into public spaces, particularly focusing on large-scale projections of street photography. It emphasizes showcasing unposed, candid moments from everyday life directly in the environment where they were captured. By projecting the photos onto walls, buildings, or other outdoor spaces, Rozou connects street art with its natural setting, creating a unique dialogue between the art and its surroundings.
The project often involves contributions from various photographers, such as Tadashi Onishi, and focuses primarily on black-and-white images that highlight the raw, spontaneous nature of street photography. The public nature of these exhibitions encourages a broad audience to engage with the art form in a casual, yet immersive manner, merging everyday city life with visual storytelling oai_citation:3,Projecting CANDID Street Photography to the public | Rozou Project feat.
