#ZINE

I've always loved the stage and theaters. The world is a theater where all sorts of people perform together, and I think humans are like flowers. This is a photo essay by someone who thinks about such things. Maybe everyday life, and humans in general, aren't so bad after all. They're incomprehensible, annoying, scary, and creepy, but maybe there's something good about them too. This is a book that will make you think about such things and make your days a little more enjoyable.

"YUSHIN," a fashion enthusiast, has created his first zine, a photo collection of fashion and clothing, created freely according to his sensibilities. It features works remade from vintage clothing he personally selected and outfits put together using clothes from his own closet. As this is a memorable first work, he has opted for a limited publication system, wanting to deliver it in a limited quantity. He hopes that people will pick it up with the image of an early item from a luxury brand, and that it will one day become a cherished item.

"If you let others choose the photos to include in your photobook, won't it reflect how others see you?" This photobook was created as a way for five photographers—Hiraki and Tamaki (the organizers), Gonta, Shirokuma, Nako, and Hiyoko-no-ko—to confront "each other" and "photography" and answer that question. It captures the individuality of each photographer and the emotions they felt the moment they pressed the shutter. We hope this book will become a ship that takes you to various landscapes once you pick it up.
