Yorumo Hirumo — Glen Snyder
Drawing from Glen Snyder’s daily work commute, Yorumo Hirumo offers a unique view of life along the Tama River, which separates Kanagawa from the urban metropolis of Tokyo. This photo book coincides with Snyder’s first gallery showing at ephemere., featuring 92 pages of black-and-white photography that masterfully blends digital and traditional film techniques. The captions, influenced by a traditional Zen verse, delve into the relationship between light and dark, adding depth to the visual narrative. Hiro Arcode's Japanese translation further enriches the experience, making Yorumo Hirumo a cross-cultural journey through time and light.

グレン・シュナイダーの日々の通勤から生まれた「夜も昼も」は、神奈川と大都会東京を隔てる多摩川沿いの人々の暮らしをユニークな視点からとらえています。この写真集は、エフェメルギャラリーでシュナイダーが初めてギャラリー展を開催するにあたり制作されたもので、92ページにわたりモノクロ写真が掲載されており、それらはデジタル技術と従来のフィルム技術を絶妙に融合して撮影されたものです。キャプションは伝統的な禅詩の影響を受け、光と闇の関係を掘り下げることで、視覚的な物語に深みを加えています。ヒロ・アルコデの和訳は、これらの作品から得られる体験をより豊かなものとし、「夜も昼も」を時と光を通じた異文化の旅に形作っています。
