"Water Mirror" is a collection of works by Risaku Suzuki, one of Japan's leading photographers. Few photographers depict landscapes with such beauty, thoughtfulness, and multifaceted perspectives. Paying homage to painters who have continuously gazed upon landscapes, this approach can also be seen in "Atelier of Cezanne" (2013) and his recent work, "The Sensible Plate of Perception / La Plaque Sensible," which has generated considerable buzz. This collection consists mainly of illustrations of landscapes reflected on the surface of water, hence the term "water mirror." What is merely a landscape becomes, in Suzuki's eyes, a new landscape seen within a landscape, where various elements such as the diverse expressions of green, the vibrant colors and patterns of flowers and fish that shine like accents, the withered leaves, branches, and trunks that, though supporting roles, add a nice touch, and elements that are either straight in focus or intentionally blurred, organically intertwine. The masterful composition is also characteristic of Suzuki, making this a book full of the fascinating aspects of landscape photography.
