Yasufumi Manda
Iwao Gallery presents A Little While Ago, a photography exhibition by Yasufumi Manda.
In 2024, Manda left Tokyo after 25 years and moved to Higashikawa, Hokkaido. A photographer, cook and angler, Manda once described life in Tokyo as a constant feeling of being on a journey. In a new environment, familiar ways of seeing have shifted, bringing renewed attention to the act of looking itself.
Describing the process as “tasting light,” Manda finds subtle beauty in rain, fog, snow, flowing rivers, swaying trees and changing seasons. The exhibition features monochrome photographs taken since the move to Hokkaido, capturing landscapes that remain just a little unfamiliar and the fleeting interplay of light and shadow.
