Koji Onaka manages to conceal an entire feeling in individual photographs and to draw a complete story with a simple click of the shutter button - a talent he proves once again in "Faraway Boat", which includes photographs taken throughout Japan between the 1980s and 2000s.

“Onaka’s black and white photographs certainly bear the mark of the scent of the dog master [Moriyama] and others; yet his works have the fragrance of his memories… a striking low-contrast black and white and an intensity of color as powerful as the momentum of a drifting ship’s inertia.” — Excerpt from the afterword by Luigi Clavareau (English and Japanese translation)
