This exhibition of photographs by Sakiko Nomura documents the aesthetics of iki [urbanity] and inase [chivalry] protected and passed down by the men of Edo.
Nomura traveled year round closely following the activities of“Edo Chōyūkai”, a society dedicated to the continuation of Edo tattoo culture.
Established in the late Meiji Era [1868-1912], Edo Chōyūkaiis Japan’s oldest tattoo society. Annually, the society pays pilgrimage to Mt. Oyama, making a formal sanpai, or worship service. While traditional tattoo culture remains virtually unknown in Japan, an online video documenting Edo Chōyūkai’s pilgrimage was viewed over 1.2million times abroad. This exhibition is organized to mark the publication of MAJESTIC, which collects 68 black and white photographs Nomura made while participating in this traditional ritual of pilgrimage and formal worship. Approximately 20 prints from the series will be on display and the book will be exclusively available for purchase at the exhibition. The exhibition is slated for travel to Australia and the US later in the year.
