Pieces of Ensemble - Mikito Hyakuno

"Pieces of Ensemble"

Pieces of Ensembleは、地上を歩く中で出会った断片を集めた写真集です。
木の質感、時間を刻んだ石、風や移動によって形づくられた痕跡たちは、意味や美を基準に選ばれたのではなく、道の途中で、ただ出会ったものたちです。

収集と再編集のプロセスを通して、断片は次第に微かな関係性を帯びはじめます。
写真たちが並べられたとき、意図的ではなく、記憶の片隅の喜びや、「今」への注意によって立ち上がる静かなアンサンブルを形作ります。

歩くこと、出会うこと、因果の痕跡を記録し本として提示すること。
自然のマテリアルがそのままの姿で置かれることで、意味は説明されるのではなく、共有された在り方の中から立ち上がります。

Pieces of Ensemble is a photobook composed of fragments encountered while walking the earth.
The textures of wood, stones marked by time, and traces shaped by wind and movement were not selected for their meaning or beauty, but simply met along the way.

Through the process of collecting and re-editing, these fragments gradually begin to reveal subtle relationships.
When placed together, they form a quiet ensemble—
emerging not from intention, but from fleeting joys held in memory and from careful attention to the present moment.

Pieces of Ensemble records acts of walking, encountering, and the traces of causality.
By allowing natural materials to remain as they are,
meaning is not explained or imposed, but arises gently through a shared state of presence.
