Description

Battleship Island is a hauntingly beautiful photograph album that reveals the secrets of a once-thriving community. In 2015, Makiko was granted rare permission to capture the restricted zone of Battleship Island, just after it was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The island's contemporary landscape is eerily silent, broken only by archive photographs that bring back memories of its former residents. Through these images, Makiko brings the island back to life, offering a glimpse into a place where tightly packed buildings once housed thousands of people. This unique and poignant book showcases Makiko's powerful photography, which tells the story of a place that was both a thriving community and a ghost town.
