I´m currently editing a photobook about my several Tokyo visits. The subscription contains cover + several double pages of this photobook. I'm fascinated by the supposed contrasts that always keep coming up in Tokyo, seen from a european perspective. The tension between individuality and conformity, intimacy and publicity, as well as other opposites that seem unusual or even incompatible according to the Western European cultural standard, fascinate me and are the reason for this book.
