JAPAN GUIDE BOOK
The images that appear to be fixed-point observations are of Japanese "tourist attractions" which have been depicted at different times.
From “Yokohama photographs” to postcards to contemporary live cameras, this limited artist book will take a sweeping view of how the concept of "famous places" in Japan has been created by images. In addition, by cropping the icons that are the subject of these images, it will highlight what has been captured but overlooked by the cameras of each era.
The book aim to provide a tool for finding a route out of the normative power of images and their influence on us in our information-overloaded society.
softcover , 108 pages , 210 x 297 mm , color , 2024, Limited edition of 50 copies, signed with edition.
