「Kung Saan」は、フィリピンで撮影されたモノクロ写真を通じて、人間の存在に関する静かでありながら深い物語を雄弁に伝える魅力的なミニ写真集です。フィオナ・ラファエラによるこのビジュアルナラティブは、先住民コミュニティの中心から賑やかな都市風景まで、遠く離れた生活の本質を捉えた感動的な旅へと私たちを導きます。彼女のレンズを通して、異なる世界の間の橋渡しがなされ、見知らぬ人々の顔に自分自身の反映を見ることができます。フィオナの写真は、日常の中にある非凡さ、毎日の瞬間の美しさ、そして私たち全員をこの広大な人間のモザイクの中で繋ぐ永遠の優雅さを明らかにします。村山杏がキュレーションと制作を手掛けた「Anagrams」は、写真家の作品を白黒写真として形にすることを支援する新進気鋭のフォトジンシリーズです。
