Normal Photographs (2015)
Digital silver print, acrylic mount

Collaboration with Mr. Takashi Fuzawa, a railroad geek with a cervical spine injury, whom I met while working parttime as a helper. While traveling around Japan with Mr. Fuzawa, who is unable to move from the neck down, we have taken a series of railroad photographs as instructed. Mr. Fuzawa's goal is to achieve the quality of amateur railroad photography as if he were a photographer. This work is not about becoming a full-fledged photographer by cooperating, but pursuing the two of them to finally reach amateur status.
