    Eiji Ohashi's Roadside Lights Seasons: Winter is the continuation of his photographic series of vending machines along the roads of Japan. This volume focuses on winter landscapes with the series' symbolic vending machines, which are solitary yet reminiscent of modern life in Japan.

    “The vending machines installed throughout the country are a symbolic image of today’s Japan, and their solitary, everyday work is reminiscent of the modern lives of us humans. In this sense, my series is a conscious reflection of its times, but it is also an expression of my own personal aesthetic sensibilities,” Ohashi says.

    “I believe that the sight of these vending machines shining brightly, all alone in the harsh winter, evokes feelings of compassion and encouragement in us. These bright, luminous figures are mechanical machines, but they also seem strangely human, and the beautiful scenery around them can even give us a little hope. ” - From the afterword by Eiji Ohashi.

    The binding allows the book to be fully opened in the leporello style creating a mobile exhibition.
