Going Back Up the River - Ongoing Project -
“Whispering in the Suburbs” was the first chapter of a story about ‘centrífugal force’ working on me for several years. Though I’d taken a picture in the center of Tokyo since 2011, the year of the great earthquake disaster,
I got bored of it and felt like I had no suitable place to be there.
I was nearly 60. Besides, the pandemic kept me away from the busy streets.
Chap. Ⅱ of the story started. I began taking a picture in the provinces. It’s a journey to the older layer of Japan, too.
