Personal statement by Japanese photographer A-CHAN
"'Vibrant Home' is the name of the apartment I used to live in in Tokyo. That was my first time to live alone. There is beauty, slight movement. I stop walking and just follow my intuition." (A-CHAN)
Background information
"The out-of-print photograhic volume 'Vibrant Home' is a tender visual diary by Japanese photographer A-CHAN of the three places in which she has lived since 2000: Tokyo, Fujishiro and New York City.
Content
The photo volume 'Vibrant Home' contains pictures A-CHAN made wandering the streets with her camera, she captures that which we see but overlook: a grid of power lines against the sky, magnolia blossoms reaching sunwards over a wall, a self-absorbed child on the subway, rain-lacquered streets."
