Martial law promulgated in 1949 to suppress dissidents by establishing a one-party rule in Taiwan by the Kuomintang from mainland China (released in 1987). In Taiwan in the 1970s, which was shaken internationally and politically, Oki captured the daily life, people, street corners, festivals, etc. in deep monochrome contrast. "I was able to capture Taiwan in this era. It seems almost a miracle, "as Hidemi Ryu wrote at the beginning, it can be said to be a valuable record taken under severe circumstances. At the time of the exhibition in Fukuoka, Oki said, "People's lives overlapped with Fukagawa after the war when I was born, and it was absurdly warm and strong. Taiwan at that time and my Fukagawa were different one by one, and everything was the same. " Missing obi-band.
