The “Sasanami” photobook exists as a collaboration between photographer Masao Yamamoto and musician Akira Uchida. Yamamoto's photographs capture sights and events of the natural world: backlit flowers, a single cloud in the sky, the sea at night, a tree at night against the stars, three sleeping ducks, the faint shape of a mountain behind the fog. with incomparable admiration, poetry and an eye for beauty. While the simplicity of his compositions invites the reader to lose himself in individual images, when viewed in sequence, the photographs build toward a larger image, toward a greater awareness of the richness of the world.
