Risaku Suzuki - Winter to Spring

Composed of new and previously published photographs from three series (White, Sakura, and Water Mirror), Risaku Suzuki's photobook 'Winter to Spring' deals with the crucial period of the year when the quiet and monotony of winter makes way for the life of spring. Photographic subjects range from snow to cherry blossoms and the surfaces of bodies of water overgrown with greenery. Rather than the awakening of life, Suzuki's focus lies in the non-linear passage and flow of time, and on the crystallization of single moments. In part inspired by his experiences during the global pandemic, the book draws attention to the fragmentary nature of our experience of time.
