This collection records the river landscape where human activity and nature intersect, set in the middle reaches of the Tone River, which flows between Gunma and Saitama prefectures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is depicted in this book is not the \"nature\" one typically imagines. Embankments, bridges, grounds, traces of construction, shacks, and drifting debris—remnants of human activity—mingle with the vegetation of the riverbed, forming a singular landscape. Yoshie, who has walked the riverbanks for many years, states that this constantly changing state, where artificial objects and nature maintain a balance, is what constitutes nature for him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing \"Local City,\" this work quietly observes the current landscape of the Tone River basin, focusing on the boundaries between city and nature, artificial and landscape, center and periphery. The appearance of the riverbed, changing with the seasons and time, reflects the accumulation of human activities and the flow of time in the land, prompting reflection on Japan's climate and culture itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough the managed yet living river landscape, this book quietly asks, \"What is nature?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[Title] Kawasekai\u003cbr\u003e[Publisher] Salvage Press\u003cbr\u003e[Publication Date] October 1, 2016\u003cbr\u003e[Pages] 52 pages\u003cbr\u003e[Size] Approx. 234\u003cem\u003e281\u003c\/em\u003e11mm \/ 565g\u003cbr\u003e[Format] Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e[Language] Japanese, English\u003cbr\u003e[Title Reading] KAWASEKAI\u003cbr\u003e[Author\/Editor] Atsushi Yoshie \/ Author, Book Design, Michitaka Ota \/ Editor\u003cbr\u003e[Printing] Nakano Collotype \/ Printing\u003cbr\u003e[ISBN] -\u003cbr\u003e[Condition] Used [4] Fair to Below Average (Body: spine faded, slight dirt on spine)\u003cbr\u003e[Accessories] -\u003cbr\u003e[Featured In] -\u003cbr\u003e[Related Exhibitions] Atsushi Yoshie Photo Exhibition \"Kawasekai\" (Sokyusha, 722, Umeda Tsutaya Books, 2017)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAtsushi Yoshie (born 1973)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Ota City, Gunma Prefecture.
