Osamu Kanemura is a Japanese born and based street photographer. He was born in 1964. He's has gained some renown in Japan, but he's still a relatively unknown on the international art scene. Now he's a street photographer like i mentioned before. But he take it more literal then the some of his peers. In his images the street themselves take control of the frame, and the human form becomes secondary to the chaotic nature of the streets. When viewing the following images, take not of how chaotic and texture packed these images are.
