Takashi Homma: Islands, islets, and their mushrooms
Takashi Homma: Islands, islets, and their mushrooms
For this book, Takashi Homma revisited the Finnish islands he first travelled to in 2016, inspired by the documentary film about Tove Jansson, ‘Haru: The Island of the Solitary’ (1998). Homma’s photographs capture the beauty of the islands and the sea between them, but also offer a brief photographic account of the various mushrooms growing in the region. The images are interspersed with personal essays written by Keiko Morishita (who served as Homma’s coordinator) about his own experiences on the islands and the lives of the people who live there. The photobook appears on the occasion of the Tokyo Art Book Fair 2023, which included a section dedicated the Nordic countries.
