Born in Toyama Prefecture in 1974, Tatsuki began his freelance career in 1998. He has photographed "dekotora" (trucks decorated with lights and ornaments) and their drivers, and since 2006 has focused on the Tohoku region, and currently, on the Jomon period. He is known as a photographer with high expectations for the future, having received last year's Kimura Ihei Photography Award, often referred to as the "Akutagawa Prize of the photography world."

The "Tohoku" exhibition features photographs taken by Tatsuki across Tohoku from July 2006 to April 2011, as well as works from the series "Is That Blood Still Red?", which captures the first deer hunt held in Tōni Town, Kamaishi City, Iwate Prefecture after the Great East Japan Earthquake in November 2011. Also on sale at the venue will be his photo book "KURAGARI", his first work since receiving the Kimura Ihei Photography Award, which compiles night photographs of deer taken in Tōni Town, Kamaishi City, from 2009 to 2012.
