is a project that collaborates with domestic and international photographers and artists to share global events from a unique perspective. Inheriting its ideology, was launched as a spin-off publishing title. Renewing its creative direction starting with the latest Issue 06, the project presents a new intersection between society and art through a world view that is more robust and refined than ever before.

The latest Issue 06 focuses on Shomei Tomatsu, one of postwar Japan’s leading photographers. It features a re-edited collection of his "Plastics" series, which captures plastic fragments and washed-up debris on Kujukuri Beach in Chiba Prefecture as if they were still-life paintings, or fragments of society itself.

のイデオロギーを継承し、出版タイトルとして派生した。最新号となるIssue 06よりクリエイティブを刷新し、これまで以上に強固で研ぎ澄まされた世界観を通じ、社会と芸術の新たな接点を提示します。

最新号となるIssue 06では、戦後日本を代表する写真家・東松照明にフォーカス。彼が千葉県・九十九里の浜辺に打ち上げられたプラスチック破片や漂着物を、まるで静物画のように、
あるいは社会の断片として捉えたシリーズ“Plastics”を再編集しました。
