It takes a considerable amount of time before he presses the shutter, and during that time he remains present, surrendering himself to the changes in the environment, such as light, wind, sound, and humidity. This creative approach, the polar opposite of immediacy, demonstrates a deep awareness of the medium of photography itself in an age where digital images are rampant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"535\" data-start=\"370\"\u003eThe Kumano landscapes, photographed repeatedly at the same locations, always emerge as new experiences. These are not photographs taken to record a place, but images resulting from contact with the world. Through the two acts of shooting and editing, the fragmented images come together, evoking new times and memories.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a condensed version of Suzuki Risaku's thoughts and feelings, giving the reader the feeling of witnessing the moment a myth is born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[Title] Between the Sea and the Mountain – Kumano\u003cbr\u003e[Publisher] Amanasalto\u003cbr\u003e[Publication date] February 10, 2015 (first edition) Limited to 400 copies\u003cbr\u003e[Number of pages] 56 pages\u003cbr\u003e[Size] Approx. 454*318*13mm, 1299g\u003cbr\u003e[Format] Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e[Language] Japanese\u003cbr\u003e[Title reading] Yama to umi no Aida\u003cbr\u003e[Authors\/Editors] Risaku Suzuki (Author), Bonnie Pong-Wai Ma (Editor \u003cspan\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e , Shin Akiyama (Designer)\u003cbr\u003e[Printing] Amana\/Printing, Live Art Books\/Daishinsha\/Binding\u003cbr\u003e[ISBN] None\u003cbr\u003e[Condition] Used, signed in silver pen on front endpaper [5], average condition (fading on front and back covers, slight fading on top edge)\u003cbr\u003e[Accessories] None\u003cbr\u003e[Featured books]\u003cbr\u003e[Related Exhibition] 2016 \"Between the Sea and the Mountains,\" Taka Ishii Gallery Photography, Paris (Paris)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"82\" data-end=\"294\"\u003eRisaku Suzuki\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"82\" data-end=\"294\"\u003eBorn in Shingu City, Wakayama Prefecture in 1963.\u003cbr\u003eGraduated from the Graduate School of Tokyo College of Photography in 1987.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe began working with photography in the late 1980s.\u003cbr\u003eIn 1998, he published his first photo book, \"KUMANO,\" which focused on his hometown, Kumano.\u003cbr\u003eHis next work, PILES OF TIME (1999), was highly praised as an ambitious work that depicts the journey to a sacred site as a series of photographs reminiscent of a road movie, and won the 25th Kimura Ihei Photography Award in 2000.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"296\" data-end=\"469\"\u003eSince then, while continuing to make Kumano his life's work, he has continued to create works centered around fundamental questions about the act of \"seeing\" itself, with themes such as Mont Sainte-Victoire in the south of France, Cézanne's studio, cherry blossoms, snow, and the surface of water.
