Whisper of the snowPhotographs by Juri IshiwataEssay by Lena FritschNot just a passer-by but an all-time Hokkaido resident, the Japanese photographer Juri Ishiwata depict a cold and desert surrounding, where only ravens and few other animals dare to show up. The images' appearance borrow undoubtedly something to the legacy of the golden age of Japanese photography but the story differs as the dark journey in Hokkaido, the northern Island of Japan, starts with a feeling of despair and isolation but after a giant snow storm leaves place to a winter sun, maybe as a message of hope, or a kind farewell to the typical black and white style of the masters. In "Whisper of the snow" the nature is the main character, and reminds us its immensity as a conveyor of emotions.Whisper of the snowPhotographs by Juri IshiwataEssay by Lena FritschTranslation by Yuka KatagiriDesign by 13BD05726Essay translated, in English and Japanese112 pages printed in duotone20x28cmFine Art paper 175gHardcover, dustcover+obiPrinted in PRCLimited Edition of 300ISBN : 978-988-77600-9-2
