REIWA I BASHO場所
Questi scatti fotografici sono stati realizzati in giro per il Giappone nella primavera del 2019, in un particolare momento storico per il paese: il passaggio di consegne tra l’imperatore Akihito ed il figlio Naruhito, che ha segnato la fine del periodo Hensei (arrivato al 31° anno) e l’inizio della nuova era soprannominata “Reiwa”. Questo nome, che trae le sue origini dalla più antica collezione di poesie nipponiche, significa letteralmente “Perido di bella armonia” (dai due kanji che compongono la parola “Rei令” -bellezza- e “Wa和” -armonia-). La raccolta è stata suddivisa in tre libri, che sono rispettivamente: Basho 場所 (luogo), Hito 人 (persona) e Jikoku 時刻 (momento). Attraverso questo trittico ho cercato di suddividere la grande mole di scatti seguendo una logica che non seguisse itinerari geografici o sequenze temporali, quanto piuttosto semplificare la complessità del tangibile e recuperare l’essenziale, che è fatto di persone (o esseri viventi in generale), di luoghi e di attimi. Buona visione 良いビジョン
These photographic shots were taken around Japan in the spring of 2019, in a particular historical moment for the country: the handover between Emperor Akihito and his son Naruhito, which marked the end of the Hensei period (arrived at 31st year) and the beginning of the new era named “Reiwa”. This name, which draws its origins from the oldest collection of Japanese poems, literally means “Period of beautiful harmony” (from the two kanji that make up the word “Rei 令” -beauty- and “Wa 和” -harmony-). The collection was divided into three books, which are respectively: Basho 場所 (place), Hito 人 (person) and Jikoku 時刻 (moment). Through this triptych I tried to divide the large amount of shots following a logic that did not follow geographic itineraries or temporal sequences, but rather to simplify the complexity of the tangible and recover the essential, which is made up of people (or living beings in general), of places and moments. Good vision 良いビジョン
