A photo book by Masao Yamamoto, a photographer highly acclaimed in the West. This book is a collection of works that highlights Yamamoto's unique style, who has previously presented many installation exhibitions in which palm-sized photographs are pasted on the wall. Small photographs of landscapes, plants, still lifes, and nudes that have a vaguely nostalgic feel are freely scattered across a large sheet of paper resembling Japanese paper, creating a unique, poetic world. This is a tranquil photo book in which the Japanese spirit and free creativity coexist. The photographer's comment is as follows: "'We' is the sound of a word that expresses things such as 'meeting' (meeting), 'picture' (painting), 'mercy' (the mental action of discerning and judging the truth), and 'we' (words that express emotion). The strange shape of the character 'we', which looks more like a symbol than a letter, has always caught my tactile sense. Knowing that it is a sound with various meanings, I felt something stirring in my heart. I'll take a walk around 'we' for a while."
