Published on the occasion of my upcoming solo exhibition Weekendtokyo
July 7–25, 2026

The images in Weekend circle a present already beginning to erode—glimpses of a modernity caught in its own bubble, and in its limits. What feels immediate slips away; what remains does so unevenly, partially revealed, or not at all.

Images from 2025, moving through New York, New Jersey, Montreal, and Japan.

Fumitsugu Takedo Only Shallow
Handmade book. Edition of 20 · Signed · 48 pages
A few copies available at the ICP Photobook Fest, May 8–10, 2026.

Created during the pandemic, these collages on washi dissolve, re-form, and layer photographs—fragile images shaped by uncertainty. Only Shallow reflects on memory, imagination, and what remains real amid shifting landscapes.

Born in 1993 in Okayama, Japan, Takedo Fumitsugu explores visual experiences that question the boundary between reality and fiction in media images. Since the beginning of his practice, he has developed a distinctive approach of presenting large quantities of photographs, often through handmade artist books. Since 2024, he has expanded his work to include video.

Osamu Kanemura’s Skeleton Goats Dust Storms brings together photographs made on the outskirts of Beijing in 2008, just before the Olympic Games, at the invitation of the late Etsuro Ishihara of Zeit-Foto Salon. Known for his focus on the dense visual noise of Tokyo, Kanemura turns here to a different terrain—eschewing the polished, forward-looking image of Beijing to seek out landscapes left in the wake of rapid development: desolate, contaminated, and in ruins, yet strangely compelling.

Working in black and white, Kanemura proposes an “after” landscape—after romance, after the protagonist, after humanity itself.
