Document Koen (Document Park) is a photobook from 1980 by the photographer Kohei Yoshiyuki featuring nocturnal scenes of people engaged in sexual activities in the park. Flash photos expose the figures and their skins in the darkness, the subjects are not always aware of their observer. Some of the images turn into more abstract views. Kohei Yoshiyuki's Document Koen / Document Park remains as a social experimentation of Japan's nightly parks, exposing the border between intimacy and surveillance.
