WIND MANDALA | Art Photobook

WIND MANDALA was published in 2018 to commemorate the completion of Yasu Suzuka's thirty-year photographic journey, which concluded in 2017.

From hundreds of photographs taken at sacred locations with deep significance to humanity around the world, 136 works were carefully selected for this volume. The book also includes essays on the works, an introduction to the handmade pinhole camera, the story behind the project, and a record of Yasu Suzuka's artistic career.

Produced as a large-format hardcover volume (307 × 307 mm), the photobook offers an experience unique to print—the texture of fine paper, the depth of the printed images, and the quiet rhythm of turning each page.

Printed in Japan, this photobook was published as a limited first edition. No reprint is planned, and sales will end once the remaining copies are gone.

Take your time with each photograph and experience a thirty-year journey of Light, Wind, and Time.
