    About the Book

    Edit

    日本と沖縄、日本とアメリカ、の狭間で青年期を過ごした平敷とジェームスには共通する眼差しが備わっているように思う。それは、見下された人にしか見返されない視線である。マイノリティを意識せざるをえない生活の中で養われた眼を二人は持つ。その眼は目には見えない何かを感じ、それを留めようと求める。二人にとってその方法は写真だった。メキシコ、大東島、与那国島で撮られた写真には「目に見えない何か」が移されている。それを魂と言ってみよう。沖縄の言葉なら「まぶい」、ジェームスは「mojo」と言うだろう。働いて、食べて、愛して、祈る。同じ地球の、裏側に住む人々の魂が時空を超えて出会う。始まりの旅から長い時と距離を経て、平敷さんとジェームスは短く出会い、別れた。そして、始まりの地へ戻った。また、始めるために。  タイラ ジュン                                                                               「はじまり」を辿れば辿るほど、わからなくなる。しかし探るうちにすべてがつながってゆく。ひとりが「ひとり」ではなくなり、そして再びひとりであることに戻る。写真家という存在、人間という存在が、沖縄の姿と次第に重なってゆく。
