2200 Miles is the fifth photobook by Japanese artist Atsushi Fujiwara. For this work, Fujiwara left Japan to photograph in Great Britain, where he once lived. Tracing the past as he travelled the 2200 mile journey, Fujiwara captures the deep sentimentality of road movies and the brightness of the sun traveling along.
