"My Japan" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Issei Suda. Issei Suda was one of the leading photographers in postwar Japan who passed away in March 2019. Born in 1940, in the 1960s, there was a time when Nobuyoshi Araki and the monthly camera magazine were sweeping the same year, and it seems that Araki has been a prominent figure since that time. Issei Suda portrayed the actual situation from a folklore perspective in a situation where many cultures and customs were lost and his identity collapsed behind the postwar period of high economic miracle. The magical depiction using 6x6 makes you feel the atmosphere of a different world that is sometimes eerie and horrifying, creating a unique world view where everyday and extraordinary intersect. This book is a collection of catalog works published at the exhibition held at the Antwerp State Museum of Photography in Belgium in 2021, and contains life work from the early 1960s to the 2010s. Valuable illustrations not included in the collection of works published in the past are also introduced.
