kids

by TAKASHI HOMMA

Japanese photographer Takashi Homma has published two remarkable books on children: Tokyo Children (2001) and Tokyo and My Daughter (2006). Their quiet, harmonious realism has become a signature of his photographic style. These works reflect how deeply Japanese culture cherishes children as the country faces one of the world’s lowest birth rates and a rapidly aging population.
