Japanese photographer Joji Hashiguchi's photo book "Couple (Signed)". Born in 1949. Following "Seventeen's Map" (1988) and "Father" (1990), this book is a collection of portraits that face each other straight like the previous two works. The shooting, which started in June 1990 on Iriomote Island, Okinawa, ended in Tokyo in September 1992, and a total of 103 couples are shown. Hashiguchi states in a postscript that the two are a couple, and it is important that they are not a couple, and that there is a "free relationship" and "individual" before the relationship of the family becomes stronger. .. Different professions, same-sex and foreign couples have also appeared in different regions, with portraits along with their personalities. The same can be said for "Seventeen's Map" and "Father", but in addition to its value as a record of the philosophical era, Hashiguchi's point of view always captures the social landscape behind it through the subject. Hashiguchi's unique fieldwork, which focuses on a society that changes with the image of a person such as emotions and lifestyle, emerges in the relationship of a couple. Signed by the photographer .
