As someone living in the present, Keiko Nomura feels compelled, as if by instinct, to remember and record in her photographs, as traces of light, the disappearing present and the light she thought she detected there. The book carries the subtitle of transmigration and reincarnation. Daido Moriyama writes that the images Nomura captures, though by no means depressing, are tinged with an air of melancholy, and that he, for one, can relate to them.
