- Book Synopsis
- "At dusk, small fire sparks drew a soft line on the azure-blue sky, and they were so close they seemed like fireflies. And the flames only sounded during the moments when they were blown by a strong wind, scattering sparks all around. These sparks then disappeared as if they were being drawn into the sky, which was deepening into a blue-black. Following these with my eyes, I pondered where the lights were going, The colour of the sky further deepened, and I strained my eyes carefully to the tiny sparks emerging. They were blown away, stirred up, and put out by the wind. " - Murakoshi Toshiya Published by Libro Arte in collaboration with Spooky CoCoon Factory, Toshiya Murakoshi's sentimental documentation of his hometown Tokyo sees Murakoshi tracing the memory of his hometown through a collection of photographs of his parents house and the surrounding landscape. The works featured in the book were created after the death of his grandmother in 2009 prompting him to rediscover a relationship with photography, documenting his family memories and delving into the sincerity of his surroundings. Included within is an afterword by Murakoshi Toshiya and text by Head priest, Chohoy-in Temple, Director of Kurenboh Temple gallery Taniguchi Akiyoshi and Curator of The National Museum of Modern Art Tokyo Masuda Rei.
