The long-awaited sequel to Kando (2011) by the deaf photographer Harumichi Saito, a finalist for the Kimura Ihei Award in 2019: 121 pictures made while he keeps photographing, facing incomprehension in a rich silence that avoids applying words to the question of what being deeply moved is. Moments in which beings that live here and now cross, the unknown, the world and himself, and what can still be joined together again through them. His pictures overflow with light and clarity and draw dignity and radiance out of their subjects, not only people but animals and landscapes, and he faces each subject directly so that the viewer can feel its pure beauty. The book breathes in time, trusting the power of deepening, and gathers moments from life both extraordinary and everyday, a living, breathing world beyond classifications or boundaries.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
