I really enjoyed looking through this photo book. From what I understand, the photos are about the town Tagawa which used to be a major centre of coal mining and cement production in Japan.
What’s interesting is that while the photographs are documentary, the style is clearly that of street photography, which illustrates how much – or better – how little of a distinction there can be between those categories.
