One Days is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Miyako Ishiuchi (1947-). Known for capturing the female body, memories, and fragments of the city, Ishiuchi has used her unique sensibility to uncover the scars and vestiges of life hidden in postwar Japanese society. While her early works, "Yokosuka Story" and "Apartment," sharply capture the urban atmosphere, her later works, such as "Mother's" and "Hiroshima," explore the connection between the individual and history through bodies and objects left behind. This book focuses on the mundane scenes of everyday life, capturing the depth of time that emerges over the course of a single day. The light that shines into familiar spaces, the arrangement of objects that retain traces of life, and the blank spaces of unexpected moments all condense the sense of passing time. Ishiuchi's lens captures seemingly insignificant moments as precious memories, elevating personal fragments of everyday life into universal experiences. This is a tranquil yet powerful book that shows once again how photography is a nexus between everyday life and memory.
