Limited edition in slipcase, including the book Des oiseaux, with a signed and numbered edition of 30.
This new series by Rinko Kawauchi celebrates the tenth title in the Des oiseaux collection. The Japanese photographer focused on the swallows of her neighborhood in the city of Chiba during the spring birthing season and, in particular, on the tiny nests that the birds build out of sight, in window embrasures or in the undersides of roofs, to protect their broods, which are fed by their parents for several weeks. Fascinated by this spectacle, Rinko Kawauchi, with her characteristic poetry and eye for detail, brings out the marvels of everyday life and the ephemeral beauty of suspended moments. The swallows, with their sharp wings, perch everywhere with ease and elegance, bathed in opalescent light.
