Toshio Shibata, Falling Water, 2021

In a series of black and white images, Falling Water captures dam infrastructure across Japan and the USA.“About two decades ago, I had the opportunity to photograph a set of photos for the large vertical book DAM. To view my subject in vertical way gave me the impression that I was loosing delicate materials in the photo. Despite my efforts, and I couldn’t make the assignment in time. However, I continued photographing dams, and the result is this book.” Toshio Shibata was born in Japan in 1949. His work is included in the permanent collections of museums around the world, including The Museum of Modern Art, New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
