Description
This is an A5 photography zine with 40 pages.
Kizamu Presents – Takumi of Japan: Origins (Vol. 1) (KZMU002) is the second release from Kizamu, following Shunkan of Japan (KZMU001).
Where Shunkan captured fleeting moments across Japan, Takumi: Origins narrows the lens to the craft of food — from markets and fishing ports to kitchens and street stalls. It’s a quiet study of the hands, tools, and traditions that shape everyday food culture in Japan, offering an unpolished, honest look at the work behind each dish.
Takumi is a Japanese word that translates to "artisan" or "master craftsman" — someone whose skill is honed through time, patience, and dedication. This zine explores that spirit in the world of Japanese food.
Shot over three months across cities, towns, and coastlines, this volume forms the first half of a two-part series exploring Japan’s culinary life — the making (Origins) and the living (Moments).
