Japanese photographer Misato presents photographs shot on the streets of Tokyo's Ginza district, focusing entirely on women. What is the distance implied by the title: the physical distance created by the telephoto lens, or the admiration felt for the subjects? In the images the women appear strong-willed, resilient and beautiful, whether absorbed in thought or smiling back at the lens. The photographer has stood on the same corner for fifteen years, watching people walk through the pedestrian zone of Ginza 4-chome and waiting for moments that transcend time.
