Erisa Satoh: 哀しき熱帯 奈加あきらの⾭ [Tristes Tropiques: Akira Naka’s Blue]
This booklet is a rare photographic exploration of kinbaku. Not focussed on the tied up person (although they are visible in some photos), also not focused on the interaction between the person tying and the person being tied (which was often the case in Erisa Satoh’s previous book) – but instead the focus is singularly on the tying person, Naka Akira, in a certain… blue… mood.
A very beautiful project.
