Description from the seller
Symphony
Signed, Takashi Homma
Case Publishing/2019/japanese/258*328*25
Photographer Takashi Homma's photobook ‘Symphony: Children of the Forest’. While enrolled at Nihon University's College of Art, he joined the advertising agency Light Publicity (the first since Kishin Shinoyama to do so while still a university student). Active in the fashion magazine ‘i-d’ since the 1990s, he won the 24th Kimura Ihei Photography Award for his 1999 photobook ‘TOKYO SUBURBIA’. Honma Takashi remains one of contemporary Japan's leading photographers, continuing to release works energetically since 2000. This book features the ‘Children of the Forest Mushrooms from the Forest’ series, photographed in the forests of Fukushima immediately after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake.
Due to radioactive fallout, mushrooms—which readily absorb such substances—were restricted from harvesting and shipping. Honma listened to their inner voices while capturing the frozen mushrooms with his camera. He traveled not only to Fukushima but also to Chernobyl and the affected forests of Scandinavia, depicting the “symphony” played from the heart by mushrooms damaged by the accident.
