Here are the factories in Japan that I photographed from August 2020 to October 2023. In recent years, many factories have been shut down or demolished, and as these places disappear, I wanted to preserve them in the form of photographs. With this in mind, I began photographing factories. Starting with factories in Sakai City, Osaka, I captured a variety of factories. I feel truly honored to have been able to photograph such beautiful scenes that I may never have the chance to capture again. Please enjoy these factory photos, which feel like something from a game or a picture book.
