Book of the Week: A Pick by Klara Källström

Rasen Kaigan / Album by Lieko Shiga
This week's Book of the Week pick is from photographer and B-B-B-Books publisher Klara Källström. Källström selected Rasen Kaigan / Album by Lieko Shiga by Japanese Publisher AKAAKA.

"Last weekend in Paris I visited Le Bal Photobook festival and I found this wonderful book by Lieko Shiga called Rasen Kaigan / Album. It is a very fascinating piece of work, like a phantasmagoria full of love and humor. A sort of light darkness seems to prevail in Shiga's world and to it, she adds hard flashes. What she shows and how she does it is very intriguing, it really triggers the imagination. This place is being created while she visits it, yet it seems like it has been there forever. She welcomes us to travel along with her here, and I have become a frequent visitor. " -- Klara Källström
