【フェア】写真展 山田陽「LIMINAL」
アート
代官山 蔦屋書店2号館 1階 アート側ギャラリー 2026年07月01日(水) - 07月15日(水)
この度、代官山 蔦屋書店2号館1階にて、フォトグラファー山田陽による写真展、『Liminal/境界』を開催いたします。
本展では、山田陽が以下のような感覚とコンセプトで写真シリーズ「LIMINAL」をまとめました。
中間の、不安定で曖昧な名前のつかない感覚。
それは突然ではなく、ゆっくり訪れる。
ファインダーを覗くと輪郭は滲み始め、
ときの感覚が薄れていくように僕は感じる時がある。
今ある現実と記憶が重なって見えるような感触。
遠くの気配が聞こえるような。
声でも、音でもない。
残像が存在をとどめるみたいに。
記憶は光に残る。
追いかけるほど遠ざかり、手を差し伸ばすとカタチを失ってしまうみたい。
境界は、いつも静かだ。
夜と朝の変わり目。
現実と夢の狭間。
過去と今。
あいだの、次のあいだに繋がる間。
ただ漂い、辿りつかない旅はまだ続いていくはず。
揺れ動く光が消える前にまたシャッターを切る。
僕は、人が好きで被写体にレンズを向けていたはずだったのに、
いっとき、人をファインダーに留めることが
嫌になっていたことがある。
目に止まる風景は変わり、浮かび上がる写真は
合間の世界に留まっていた気がする。
A nameless feeling—uncertain, unstable, existing somewhere in between.
It does not arrive suddenly. It comes slowly.
Sometimes, when I look through the viewfinder, the edges of things begin to blur, and my sense of time seems to fade.
A sensation that the reality before me and my memories are overlapping.
As if a distant presence can be heard.
Not a voice, not a sound.
More like an afterimage lingering, refusing to disappear.
Memory remains in light.
The more I try to pursue it, the further it drifts away.
And when I reach out to touch it, it seems to lose its shape.
Boundaries are always quiet.
The moment between night and morning.
The space between reality and dreams.
The distance between the past and the present.
The in-between, leading to yet another in-between.
Simply drifting, on a journey that never quite arrives.
Before the trembling light disappears, I release the shutter once more.
I once believed I photographed people because I was drawn to them.
Yet there was a time when I no longer wanted to hold people within the frame.
The landscapes that caught my attention began to change, and the photographs that emerged seemed to linger in a world between worlds.
Looking back, I feel they were always there—waiting in that space in between.
７月２日（木）には、トークセッションとして、山田陽とファッションジャーナリスト、元Vogue Japan編集長、渡辺三津子さんと
The Eastern Observer,、Like the wind Japan、 木星社、代表・発行人の藤代きよさんによる、トークセッションを行います。
作品を作ることについて一緒にお話をさせていただきます。

書店というスペースに人が集まり、交差していく。
間と間を揺れ動くすがたを感じてみてください。

LIMINAL
July 1–15, 2026
Photographer Akira Yamada presents LIMINAL at DAIKANYAMA TSUTAYA BOOKS.
This exhibition features LIMINAL, a photographic series that Yamada has been developing over recent years.
A nameless feeling—uncertain, unstable, existing somewhere in between.

Simply drifting, on a journey that never quite arrives.
Before the trembling light disappears, I release the shutter once more.
I once believed I photographed people because I was drawn to them.
Yet there was a period when I found myself stepping away from photographing people altogether.
The landscapes that caught my attention began to change, and the photographs that emerged seemed to linger in a world between worlds.
Looking back, perhaps they had always been there.
Waiting quietly in that liminal space.
On July 2, photographer Akira Yamada will be joined by fashion journalist and former Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Japan, Mitsuko Watanabe, and Kiyo Fujishiro, publisher and editor of The Eastern Observer, Like the Wind Japan, and Jupiter Publishing, for a special talk session.
▶Special talk session Home Page
Together, we will discuss the act of making work, sustaining a creative practice, and what it means to create and communicate through images.
People gather and cross paths within the space of a bookstore.
We hope you will experience the subtle movements between one moment and the next, and feel the presence of the spaces in between.
