JAPAN Naoya Tatsumi Naoya Tatsumi Publishing/2012/Japanese/H297×W210mm Naoya Tatsumi's first collection of photographs begins with black-and-white portraits of men who appear to be street dwellers in Nishinari Ward, Osaka, and later evolves into color snapshots of the city. This is a book that defines Naoya Tatsumi's determination as a photographer, declaring that his first priority is not to make a living from photography, that he has no regrets even if he ends up unknown, and that he is willing to be honest with himself and dedicate his life to photography, brushing aside the small desires that appear before his eyes, even if they end up being futile in the end.
