A reflection on a series of t-shirt works produced throughout Takashi Homma’s career, documented for the medium of Risograph and translated into zine format. Homma’s conversational approach to process is expanded through the interspersion of social media screenshots.

Takashi Homma is a Japanese photographer, born and based in Tokyo. His work is recognised for its tender, considered portrayal of identity and culture in Suburban Tokyo. Homma left Nihon university of Art in 1984 to work as a photographer at a Japanese advertising agency, before moving to London in 1991 to work as the in-house photographer at iD magazine. Homma’s career has seen him tirelessly document the many visual facets of Tokyo over the last 40 years, developing an honest and arresting sense of distance and
