While the name may suggest an album of streetsnaps or a homelessness documentary, Yuta Fuchikami’s photobook “On the Street 2” contains one of the strongest recent portrait series, featuring people he befriended around Tokyo’s Ueno Park area.
Shot in black and white using a medium-format Pentax camera, Fuchikami’s portraits connect their subjects so organically and naturally with their surroundings that it seems unimaginable they could exist anywhere else. A rare masterpiece in a well-populated genre.
