Shinichiro Nagasawa, The Bonin Islanders

DELTA/KYOTOGRAPHIE Permanent Space is pleased to host Shinichiro Nagasawa’s solo exhibition, The Bonin Islanders

▍Shinichiro Nagasawa
Born in Tokyo in 1977, Shinichiro Nagasawa began photographing on Chichijima in the Ogasawara Islands, located 1,000 km south of Tokyo. In 2021, he published The Bonin Islanders, a work exploring the identity of the “Western Islanders” who were the first settlers of the formerly uninhabited island. In 2024, he published Mary Had a Little Lamb, documenting the underground storage facilities on Chichijima where nuclear warheads had been secretly brought in during the U.S. military occupation. Both photobooks illuminate events from this so-called “23-year blank” and question the deliberate erasure of memory. In 2025, he received the 49th Kimura Ihei Photography Award for Mary Had a Little Lamb.
