{"title":"Masato Suda","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMasato Sudo is a contemporary photographer. As an art student, Sudo concentrated his photographic work on long haul trucks lavishly decorated by their drivers. While working on one of these studies, Sudo encountered a driver with designs on his body that outdid those of his truck. Enamored by such individualized bodily expression, Sudo built his career as a contemporary photographer capturing the beauty of the Japanese tattoo and its dynamic human canvas. In 1985, Sudo released \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eRansho: Japanese Tattooing\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, a one hundred-and-forty-three page photographic exploration of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003etebori\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, or hand tattooing, done by Horiyoshi III, Horijin and Horikin.
