Gleam
For more than ten years, Japanese photographer Kazuya Sudo has been photographing Kiyomizudera in Kyoto, a World Heritage Site and Buddhist temple with a history of more than 1200 years. The photobook “Gleam” condenses his work into a sublime photobook about the Buddhist statues that are part of the temple and the beauty of the landscape that surrounds it. In black-and-white photographs, Sudo conveys the detail and craftsmanship of the statues as objects, but also captures the serenity and religious meaning imbued in them.
“In the faint light, we can feel the history and the hopes and thoughts behind the face of the Buddha.”
― from the publisher’s description (translation by shashasha)
