Publisher's Synopsis
The clouds serve as a common denominator in Osamu Yokonami's continued exploration of youth, collectivity and anonymity. The utopian settings in 'Kumo' depict an analogy of the cultural homogenization of society's interconnecting networks; the social system as a visual metaphor, the strength of a group can overcome individual actions. Shooting locations include Tateyama, Mount Fuji, Miura, Numazu - all in Japan.
