The main advice photographer David Fokos offers: “Focus.” (Aptly enough, he pronounces his name the same way.) Concentrate, he says, on the essence of the image, reducing or eliminating everything else. The San Diego- based artist has been exhibited around the world, and his style is likened to visual haiku.A student of Japanese art history, Fokos has refined his photographic minimalism over 15 years, striving to create images that express a profoundly telling sense of place.
