The culmination of a two year project inspired by manga, surrealism and film noir and set in Japan post the Great East Earthquake of 2011

Initially fascinated by the apparent inability to evacuate Tokyo in the case of a major disaster, I wanted to explore what it is like to live there. I was confronted by a culture that still surprises me in both its traditions and in its innovations and how they co-exist in this inescapable bubble.
