Photographer' statement, by Takehiko NAKAFUJI
"The monster of Tokyo has not stopped its advance. Life goes on and the conflict between the lively old streets and inhuman rebuilding remains. Tokyo will continue as a demon city with swirling energy, spinning out of control." (© Takehiko NAKAFUJI)Background Information & Content
"The photo volume 'White Noise' by Takehiko NAKAFUJI focuses on Japan's capital city, Tokyo. The Japanese photographer's exciting photographs of Tokyo mix genres and styles; black-and-white street photography is as much a part of the series as almost psychedelically colorful architectural shots. Special attention should be paid to the book's brilliant, multi-layered design, where behind the photos on each page is another hidden scene ready to be discovered. This is the best thing a photo book has ever done to reflect the experience of Tokyo itself, with its endless labyrinthine structures and visual opulence." (© Zen Gallery, 2018.)
