Kazunari Suzuki is a Japan-based visual artist who works with photographs and historical archives. His work focuses on the history and culture of Japanese photography. Suzuki started his career as a commercial photographer but later shifted to fine arts due to illness.
The particular project, Japan Guide Book, appears to be a collection of Japanese “tourist attractions” which have been documented throughout the years. By cutting out the attractions and leaving a stark white silhouette in their stead, the photos in the collection highlight what has been captured but often overlooked by the camera: the everyday people and normality of the country.
