JUNYA WATANABE Photography Collection:Night Lights on Water (Japanese Edition)

Night × Rain × Tokyo  An invitation to the fantasy world of the city

This is the debut commercial collection, carefully curated from hundreds of thousands of photographs, by a talented photographer who continues to capture rain-soaked nights in Tokyo. Approximately 140 photographs of the city’s nightscapes skillfully capturing reflections on the ground, raindrops, and neon lights from a unique point of view are featured. This is a highly anticipated book for fans, with more than half of the images never before published on social media. At the end of the book, there is also an interview with the photographer’s close friend, Liam Wong.
