"zk" by Ryuichi ISHIKAWA

With its caleidoscopic variety of subjects, scenes, views, angles and colors, Ryuichi Ishikawa’s photobook “zk” is not only a follow-up to his 2014 series “A Grand Polyphony” but an expansion of its underlying concept.

Ishikawa captures – with great energy – snapshots of reality that are loaded with emotions, ideas, compassion and, simply, an almost palpable presence of his subjects. Using images shot all over Japan (but mainly in his home of Okinawa) between 2012 and 2019, Ishikawa employs the gift of temporal distance to his images to compose another grand, spectacular view of life in single moments – from portraits of strangers and friends to instants of Japanese folk culture, details of a street’s surface, dildos and sex play, nightly urban sceneries or simple street photography.
