The artist has been visiting Suzu for the past 5 years and photographed everything from local traditional events such as Suzu’s seasonal Kiriko festivals and “Aenokoto” to high school students’ club activities and a bar at the far end of town. The tip of the Noto peninsula is not a dead-end but rather an entryway to Asia spreading across the Japan Sea and a gateway out of the Japanese archipelago. With that thought as a starting point, he will exhibit all the photos taken so far in an empty warehouse.
