More about the book

Watanabes work is like a contemplative behavior that focuses on the breath so that the moment is fully free to emerge. So that the instant is lived as completely as it can be, Watanabe stays open for all the elements of discovery... the dried leaves in the foreground before the names of the dead. These are the illuminations of his pictures. Anthony Bannon, Director, George Eastman House, Rochester, NY
