111 portraits of people across Japan made by Takashi Homma between 2002 and the present. Spanning all generations and a wide range of occupations, the project trains the care usually reserved for cultural icons on ordinary, anonymous individuals. Photographed in familiar urban settings with quiet intensity and empathy, the portraits offer a grounded, humanistic picture of contemporary Japanese identity, in the tradition of socially engaged portraiture.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is a digital platform dedicated to independent photobooks, photography 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.
