{"product_id":"furusato-hiromi-tide","title":"Furusato, Hiromi: Tide","description":"\u003cp\u003eSwaying between the explicitness of the individual instant and the ambiguity of a larger story, Hiromi Furusato’s series “Tide” explores the possibilities of the moment – as a space to rest, to reflect, to read into the future, and to simply be. Composed of photographs taken over a period of ten years in the city of Ishinomaki in Miyagi Prefecture, “Tide” primarily follows a woman as life continues to unfold. We see her kissing, staring into space or into the camera, lying in a hospital bed, lying side by side with the photographer, sleeping, standing in a backyard, or having a sudden nosebleed, interspersed with images of children, old clothes, a funeral, a group photo of friends, food, or an oddly shaped cloud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“One striking aspect of this work is how women of all generations build relationships, their bonds forming a solid axis of life. The gaze and time quietly passed down—from grandmother to mother, daughter, friend, neighbor—are individual acts, yet undeniably carry a sense of community.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gaze fixed upon her is simultaneously returned to us.\u003cbr\u003eWhen we face each other within the photograph, how earnestly have we gazed back at one another?”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003eTitle: \u003c\/b\u003eTide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003ePublisher,Year: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAkaaka Art Publishing, 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hiromi Furusato\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/strong\u003eJapanese and English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003eFormat: \u003c\/b\u003eSoftcover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003eSize: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e257 × 362 mm,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e64 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003eISBN: \u003c\/b\u003e978-4-86541-219-2\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TPG Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57259425825148,"sku":null,"price":37.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2244\/5351\/files\/Tide-Cover.jpg?v=1786122029","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.thephotographersgallery.org.uk\/products\/furusato-hiromi-tide","provider":"TPG Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
