"Photopaper 44/45 Mikiko Hara (Acceptable)" is a collection of works by Mikiko Hara, one of Japan's leading female photographers. Her 2017 work, "Change," the first in the "The Gould Collection" series, a tribute to Christophe Clisson, a French photo collector who passed away at the age of 45, won the 42nd Kimura Ihei Award. Her work has recently been exhibited at the Yokohama Civic Gallery's "New Today's Artists 2019" exhibition, and she is garnering attention both domestically and internationally. "Photopaper" is part of a series published periodically by the nonprofit organization that runs Germany's Kassel Photo Festival, and this issue includes the title "Kyrie." The following is a text by the photographer: "I don't dream about people who are gone. Because I don't usually dream. Maybe I do, but I don't remember. People who are gone were good dreamers. (Omitted) They often told me about their dreams. And then they were gone. I don't dream about people who are gone." It may be that this piece is filled with thoughts of photographer Hara's husband, who was a great understanding friend of hers and who passed away in 2016. (Damage to edges and corners.)
