Seasons

‘Seasons’ is a long-term photographic project about time — how places change, and how they remain, as days accumulate and pass. The work pays attention to ordinary spaces shaped by weather, use, maintenance, and quiet routines.

People appear mostly through traces: paths worn down, lights left on, objects arranged or unattended. The photographs sit in moments of transition — between seasons, between uses, between presence and absence.

The project is not about defining Japan, but observing it patiently across different regions and conditions. Over time, the images become less about location and more about continuity: the slow persistence of daily life, and the way places continue to hold meaning even when nothing remarkable seems to be happening.
