Abstract: Inspired by performance art and by the power of subtraction to find absolute beauty, Seiju Toda created a series of 33 compositions called Heian, a term meaning peace and serenity. In a meticulous process that took several years, Toda both assembled the pieces using plain wood and living creatures--birds, fish, insects, reptiles--and directed the photography with careful consideration for the natural elements.
