Swimming Swans are so gorgeous.




Even if it is a duck.



Or whatever.




Ducks don’t care.




Swans don’t care.




Birds don’t care.




Swans Swim.

Swans Swam.

Swans Swum.





Swans Shine.




“Mommy, I want to be a swan!”




“No, you can’t.

But it doesn’t matter.”

<SWM SWN> is a photographic fairy tale book based on re-creation of personal travel images.
The title is short for "Swimming Swans," and the story goes on by image narrative.
By making photographs visually juxtaposed, repeated, and overlapped (as word usually does in a book), it is an effort to make a silent book instead of writing text.
Each captions for individual photographs helps to develop this fictional story.

The original pictures were taken in 2019, but the re-creation and arrange of photographs were completed in 2022.
