EMON Photo Gallery would like to announce 「Issan」, the latest solo exhibition by Eriko Koga.

About five years after her debut solo exhibition 「Asakusa Zenzai」, and several years since her relationship with Koyasan began, Eriko Koga`s latest exhibition showcases a powerful new body of work compiled over several years on this sacred mountain. Koga`s lens is the first ever held by a woman to capture the inner realm of Koyasan, traditionally forbidden to women, and she seizes this unique opportunity to convey both artistic and deeply personal revelations with her distinctive authenticity. We invite you to experience Koga`s latest pieces, come to life after years in the making as Koyasan itself nears a landmark 1200th year.
