Background information
"Taking pictures of naked people, Sakiko NOMURA creates a story about life and time. Her outlook on nudity is far from the standard way of thinking… The beauty of their nudity emphasizes man’s helplessness towards the secret of life and time. Deprived of daily attributes – clothes or house facilities, they seem to be much lonelier in longing for something undefined, something that would enable them a real fulfillment." (publisher's note, © LibroArte, 2013)
Book reviews
"Poetic scenes of the everyday passing of time and the glimpse of truth which emerges within these are presented in a careful selection of large scale works from Sakiko NOMURA." (© Tokyo art beat)
"Known for her haunting, poetic body of work that painstakingly records the passage of time, Sakiko NOMURA was recently name-dropped by no less a figure than Simon BAKER, curator of photography at the Tate, London." (© enjp)
