The photographs in Above Below move through the Japanese wilderness with grace as one season fades into the next. They document the experience of living outdoors and mountaineering from Nogawa’s perspective. A perspective that seems to float alongside her fellow trekkers, not entirely on the ground but never out of reach.
About the Artist
After graduating with an MA from Nihon University School of Art, Nogawa completed an artist-in-residence programme at CESTA in Tabor, Czechia. She resides in Tokyo and primarily takes photographs in the surrounding Kanto region.
