14 "Times of Love" Captured by Leica

In this exhibition, Nobuyoshi Araki captures "a time of love" woven with delicate shadows. All 14 photographs, including works featuring actress Kiko Mizuhara—currently gaining attention for her role in the year's biggest話題作, the film 'Norwegian Wood'—were taken using Leica cameras.

To capture time within a photograph, to leave within a single frame the interconnectedness of all things and the traces of their existence. The times of love, captured in light by his shutter and imprinted in photographs, live on semi-permanently as symbols of relationships, awakening memories of love deep within the viewer's heart.

I became convinced that I was framing time, not space.

The time of shooting is the time of love.

Interacting with the time of love created by very cute children and parent-child relationships,

Interacting with the female subject,

My photographs are a time of love. —Nobuyoshi Araki

The moment you engrave that emotion in your heart before his works, the moment you linger in the afterglow, the faint impression that comes to mind when you close your eyes—all of these are also "a time of love."
