Kikuna Mishima "HOPE"

―――――――――――――

girl you change the world

Kikuna Mishima, who has expressed the innocence and desire of young girls with impactful visuals, her first collection of photographs.

Beautiful and strange "realistic picture books" sometimes created by creating elaborate sets and using photographs.

A hymn to the fresh and unique modern girl

=====

When I was very little,

a picture book was delivered home

My parents read out the book

every night for me

I always feel each picture teaches me

something very important in the story

And also my photo works have

same words in my original life story

To me, making my own picture book

is to teach myself how to live peacefully

in this real world

A little girl I've never met...

A little girl I don't even know her nameHer...

I want to give her everything

To save her from all the pains
