Osamu Yokonami - A Feeling

$60.00

A Feeling captures the trivial details that often escape our notice—small moments that fade into the background of our daily lives. They reflect life’s quiet transformations, shaped by the flow of nature, and the uncertainty of existence. Drawn to these overlooked fragments, Osamu Yokonami (b. 1967, Japanese) sought to grasp them, lest they pass by unnoticed. As time passes, familiar things begin to feel distant, slipping away without warning. This gradual distancing is an inevitable part of life that one must learn to accept. There is beauty in things shaped by time and in their uncertain, transient forms. Yokonami’s subconscious catches sight of fragility, and through this lens, imperfection gleams at him. These fleeting, precious moments, never twice the same, reside within our everyday lives. They reveal themselves only when we have the right mind to see them, prompting us to reflect on how we live.

  • Libraryman, founded in 2008 in Stockholm, Sweden by Tony Cederteg, produces and publishes contemporary photobooks by initiating a preserving liaison with artistic perceptions from varied paths. Sans intrusion of prevailing trends, Libraryman embraces its titles as intimate, ageless and prolonged poems—drawing inspiration from concise printed matters, unspoken language and an immense romanticism for the vocation.

    Central to the idea of Libraryman is to serve as a complementary hand to the artist’s vision; with unobtrusive design and interwoven tactility this collaborative effort ensures that both the artist and the publisher will never sacrifice their carefully crafted identities.
