IRREVERSIBLE / 不可逆
#964, April 2026
The body within irreversible time.
The body as a form in which time has accumulated.
This series explores the irreversibility of time and the existence of the body.
We can never return to the same moment twice.
Within this fleetingness, the body is here, undeniably present, and continues to change.

Concept
As long as we are alive, we continue to change, and we can never return to what we were before.I want to photograph that “changed present” not through explanation or narrative, but simply as an existence that is there.The wet plate collodion process, with its irreversible stages in the making of each image, is also an important part of this theme.
Participation
I am currently looking for people who would like to take part in this series.
During the session, I photograph moments in which the body and presence of each person can be felt, working with a range of positions — standing, sitting, leaning against a wall, and so on.
There are no restrictions on age (aged 18 or over) or gender, and no modeling experience is necessary.
Depending on the work, the session may involve partial or full nudity. I will explain the content and approach carefully beforehand, and the session will only proceed with your full understanding and agreement.
The sessions take place on weekend afternoons at my studio in Shinkoiwa, Katsushika, Tokyo. There is no participation fee. As a token of appreciation, I will give you a print made from the finished wet plate photograph.
I am also considering presenting this series in exhibitions in the future.
If you are interested, please feel free to get in touch. I am also happy to simply talk about the project first.
