Go West was published on the occasion of Sakiko Nomura's solo exhibition at the Hekinan City Tatsukichi Fujii Museum of Contemporary Art, her first show at a public museum. The works include travel photographs that begin in Japan and 'go west', from Yamaguchi Prefecture to Taiwan, Harbin in China, India, Paris and Granada in Spain, together with new works taken in Hekinan for the exhibition. Nomura's images conjure imagined, distant worlds shrouded in darkness, where neither words nor sounds seem to penetrate.
