Naohiro Harada revisits the suspended reality of the postponed Tokyo 2020 Olympics, extending his earlier exploration of Japanese visual culture through the lens of mitate-e—a tradition of playful allusion and reinterpretation. This publication brings together images once set aside: fragments, rejections, and overlooked moments from the original series, now forming a more reflective continuation. In dialogue with ten ukiyo-e prints by Utagawa Hiroshige, Harada further traces the relationship between past and present, absence and representation, echoing the stillness of a city once emptied and the unseen audience it once awaited.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
