"Matsumoto" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Akio Tomari (LA Tomari). Born in Kagoshima Prefecture, Tomari worked as an interior stylist before shifting his focus to photography, where he has worked in a wide range of fields including advertising, magazines, and publishing. His work is characterized by his gaze that focuses on everyday objects, spaces, and quiet scenes of life, and he is known for his works that carefully capture things and places that hold the presence of life. This book is a collection of photographs taken in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, and records subjects that evoke the memory of the land, such as cityscapes, buildings, folk implements, and everyday objects, with a quiet sense of distance. Rather than pursuing flashy events, this collection of works reveals the layers of time and culture that flow through the land by looking at the forms and presences in everyday life.
