Takezawa Uruma Photo Collection: Boundary

About the productJapanese

A photographer who traveled to 103 countries in 1,021 days reaches new territory.

A long-awaited new work from photographer Takezawa Uruma, his first in about five years.
Wherever Takezawa has traveled, he has witnessed not only physical borders, but also various "borders" such as racial issues, religious conflicts, and border disputes. In this book, he compares landscape photographs of Iceland with photographs of people's daily lives to ask what a "border" is.
