Hatakeyama, \"BLAST\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"170\" data-end=\"241\"\u003eThrough the use of \"dynamite,\" a tool of civilization, mountains crumble and transform into stone, becoming the foundation of cities.\u003cbr data-start=\"209\" data-end=\"212\"\u003eNaoya Hatakeyama pursued the moment of explosion in quarries across Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"243\" data-end=\"419\"\u003eAt first, I was shooting with a large-format camera (4x5), but I could only take one picture per blast.\u003cbr data-start=\"281\" data-end=\"284\"\u003eTo better capture the rhythm of the explosions, I switched to a compact SLR camera with a motor drive.\u003cbr data-start=\"324\" data-end=\"327\"\u003eAlso, I tried taking pictures from a distance using a telephoto lens, but...\u003cbr data-start=\"352\" data-end=\"355\"\u003eBecause the angle of view made the \"distance\" visible, and I felt that something important was missing from the photograph,\u003cbr data-start=\"396\" data-end=\"399\"\u003eI ultimately chose to shoot with a standard lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"421\" data-end=\"564\"\u003eWhile waiting for the blast, the walls of the mine office bore the inscription: \"Fear nature not, but neither despise it; always keep God in your heart.\"\u003cbr data-start=\"468\" data-end=\"471\"\u003eThat phrase was written on the sign.\u003cbr data-start=\"485\" data-end=\"488\"\u003eAfter that, the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred while I was printing \"BLAST\".\u003cbr data-start=\"519\" data-end=\"522\"\u003eHis hometown of Rikuzentakata, and the cement factory in Ofunato where the filming began, were also affected by the disaster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"566\" data-end=\"679\"\u003eThe human figure standing between nature and technology.\u003cbr data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"586\"\u003eIts small size, and the power it can wield at the same time.\u003cbr data-start=\"602\" data-end=\"605\"\u003eThis work marks a turning point, revealing the \"narrative\" that Hatakeyama has consciously excluded from his previous works.\u003cbr data-start=\"644\" data-end=\"647\"\u003eIt became an important starting point that led to the later \"Rikuzentakata\" series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"681\" data-end=\"808\"\u003eThe book design was done by Shin Sobue.\u003cbr data-start=\"696\" data-end=\"699\"\u003eHatakeyama felt this way every time he encountered Sobue's intelligence, judgment, and sense of humor.\u003cbr data-start=\"731\" data-end=\"734\"\u003eHe says that he remembers Kiyoji Otsuji, whom he once studied under.\u003cbr data-start=\"754\" data-end=\"757\"\u003eAs he said, \"There's no one more like Otsuji than Sobue.\"\u003cbr data-start=\"783\" data-end=\"786\"\u003eThis book also contains a quiet sense of respect for the author's mentor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"810\" data-end=\"923\"\u003eThe cover has a folded structure, and when unfolded, it becomes a B2-sized poster.\u003cbr data-start=\"843\" data-end=\"846\"\u003eFurthermore, it's designed so that it can also be used as a cover with a different illustration.\u003cbr data-start=\"869\" data-end=\"872\"\u003eThanks to Sobue's design, this book transcends the format of a mere photo album.\u003cbr data-start=\"900\" data-end=\"903\"\u003eIt has been sublimated into a single, formative experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[Title] BLAST\u003cbr\u003e[Publisher]
