The Buildings - Fumio Kitaoka

The tranquil architectures captured by Fumio Kitaoka
The composition of Les bâtiments features serene geometric shapes bathed in soft light, where roofs and facades respond to each other within a limited but expressive palette. The artist organizes space with sobriety: clean lines, moderate contrasts, and textured touches that suggest materiality and distance. The atmosphere conveyed is both contemplative and slightly nostalgic, inviting the viewer’s eye to move between volumes and shadows. This pictorial reading highlights Fumio Kitaoka's precision in line and chromatic mastery, here translated into a faithful and refined art print.
