Description

Referencing Hokusai’s legendary ukiyo-e series, Takashi Homma offers a haunting and contemporary encounter with Japan’s most potent symbol. Using pinhole cameras and digital techniques, Homma captures Mount Fuji from the outskirts of Tokyo, presenting it as a ghostly, almost hallucinatory presence. The photographs are often collaged or framed in a way that subverts the traditional “spectacle” of the mountain, focusing instead on the act of looking. With an essay by Pico Iyer, the book writes a subtle and essential new chapter in the long history of Fuji’s representation in Japanese visual culture.
