Martin Parr: Cherry Blossom Time in Tokyo<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

It was a real honour to work with Martin Parr on this limited edition photobook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Limited edition of 30, signed by Parr on the vellum-like cover page. Custom-designed cherry-pink silk-covered hand-made and hand-bound book with 20 mounted original colour photographs, all of which feature fake cherry blossoms seen in situ in Japan’s capital city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"CHERRY<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

From the publisher: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Cherry Blossom Time in Tokyo’ is Martin Parr’s personal view of the complex mixture of ancient and modern, authentic and artificial that is modern Japan. Only those flowers in the background of the first image are real: the successive images all feature fake blooms in locations that are progressively distanced from the natural world. Seen looped around shop displays of laptops, mobile phones, cameras and necklaces, these flowers soften, and are in striking contrast to, the bright, colourful world of commerce that is focused on in the photographs… displaying Martin Parr’s sharp eye for absurdity and abundant humor.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
