About

Carps, clouds, a curtain, a tire, fried eggs, a grandfather, a butterfly. These are the details of the everyday life that are too easily missed. Seen through the lens of Kawauchis camera however, the ordinary shines with patterns of light; even an ant transforms into a statement of style. This thoughtful debut photo book won awards for its graceful contemplation of mortality.
