Yoshiyuki Okuyama photographed this series in the house of his late grandmother, which he uses as a studio space. Making a clear visual departure from his usual pictorial subjects, people, Okuyama deftly enters into a nostalgic dialogue with his late grandmother by photographing flowers, plants, and trees illuminated by the sunlight. ‘Flowers’ is a mixture of his perspective of his grandmother through flowers as well as her perspective before and after her death, which Okuyama had already been photographing. The book includes an interview with the photographer in which he offers insight into his impetus and approach regarding this emotional series.
