Jane Evelyn Atwood

Jane Evelyn Atwood, who has been active as a Paris-based photographer since the 1970s, has produced a reverse range of work borne out of intense curiosity. Ever since she began photographing the street prostitutes of Paris in 1976, Atwood has undertaken many projects in which she captures people who live with their hardships under challenging circumstances, such as women in prisons or mine victims. Capturing harsh realities, her images are direct yet subtle but never brutal or exploitative, showing Atwood's extraordinary sensibility and compassion for the people she photographs.
Atwood's first solo exhibition in Japan shows a collection of photographs carefully selected out of her most representative series. In accordance with the artist's wishes, the exhibition avoids following a typical thematic or chronological order. The images are yet linked by gestures or expressions, light or shadow, intimacy and Soul: photographs that move and fascinate and remain in the mind.
