"Everything Will Flow" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Masumi Ishida (1998-). Ishida began taking photographs in high school and gained attention with "Light Years" for his fresh and vivid portrayal of the daily lives and friendships of his peers. While his focus on relationships with those close to him and the passage of time has been consistent since his early works, this book opens up his interest to a broader world. At the heart of this second collection are photographs taken in Iceland in 2018. Taken as one period of time ended with graduation and his surroundings underwent significant changes, the photographs reveal a strong awareness of time itself, going beyond simply documenting specific events or people. Flowing clouds and water, shifting light, and fragments of quiet landscapes quietly demonstrate the existence of time that continues to flow no matter how hard one tries to hold it back. As the title suggests, the book is permeated by a gaze toward a constantly changing world. If "Light Years" was a work that tried to embrace the time that was being lost, this work can be said to be a work that accepts and observes the flow of time. This is an important book that demonstrates Masumi Ishida's photographic expression has taken a step to the next level.
