Buildings were destroyed, roads stripped, lives were lost and precious memories from inside the houses, like photographs of loved ones, stolen for ever. Gianni Giosue is a European photographer based in Tokyo and covers social issues around the world. Recently he was awarded a ‘Coup de Coeur’ nomination at the 2010 “VISA Pour L’ Image” Photojournalism Festival for his work “One year in Russia”. To see more of Giosue’s work click here
Impressive photography….
Stark, yet impressive. Depressing subject but tenderly captured.
Does the kitten is going to be alright. I hope he is not ratio active contaminated with the nuclear plant.
The details are where this story is at now……visually. IN details, you see the lives
of people, how they were lived, what was important to them, what they liked and treasured, and these are lovely photographs, lamenting the destruction and even the survival of aspects
of life.
Beautiful photographs that really capture the echoes of such a ferocious trauma that Japan now has to rebuild from.
