"Daily Journeys" is a photobook by Japanese photographer Masahiko Taniguchi (1967-). While studying in the research course at the Japan Journalist College, he apprenticed under photographer Akira Tanno, and in 1989, he won the Mainichi Shimbun News Photography Annual Special Prize for his scoop photograph of the funeral of Emperor Showa. In 1992, he joined the photography class "CORPUS" run by photographer Eikoh Hosoe and studied under him. As a freelance photographer, Masahiko Taniguchi has also created works with people involved in physical expression, such as dancers, strippers, and stage actresses. This book is his debut work, compiling photographs he has taken like a diary since around 1995. The book seems to depict a journey accompanied by various women, featuring nudes, landscapes, scenes on planes and ships, and in the latter half, a succession of women who appear to be strippers... It unfolds as a series of rambling, diary-like snapshots, but rather than immersing oneself in the romance of travel, it has the feel of a story between men and women (or, in Araki's words, a sentimental journey), and there is a certain ephemeral atmosphere to it. It is a lyrical book, a string of images like fragments of memory.
