光らないものたち

EXHIBITION for LEICA

A collage of five photographs with Japanese text in the center. The top row contains images of closed storefronts, an alleyway with a person walking, and an abandoned house. The bottom row shows a corner shop, and a man sitting inside a room decorated with posters and shelves. The title in Japanese translates to 'Unlighted Things,' and it is associated with photographer Giovanni Piliarvu, along with a Leica logo.
