![To Find The Right Chair (Book)]( "To Find The Right Chair (Book)")
infoJun Iwasaki’s To Find The Right Chair pursues musings of the mind forming mental pictures of scenes of consciousness. The scene hangs there but occasionally there might emerge a glimpse of a metaphor. Throughout his shooting, he feels sympathy with subjects, by projecting his emotions onto them, associating and harmonizing with what he sees. He is not a photographer yet, he is just an ordinary guy trying to live a daily life. For him, photography is a medium to express thought; like going to the supermarket to get the ingredients to cook soup for your friends. This book has 20 coloured and 2 b/w photographs taken with a small-format camera in 10 different cities where the photographer used to live, or visit, between 2012 and 2020. Each photo presents an historical yet insignificant moment in Iwasaki’s visual poetry. First edition of 350 copies. Special edition of 25 copies comes with paperboard slipcase, 100 years archival inkjet print on William Turner 190g/m2. Signed and numbered by artist.

Iwasaki’s works, rich in psychological undertones and characterised by ambiguity, Iwasaki’s work explores personal conflict, self-questioning and impermanence.
The creative practice of Jun Iwasaki, a Japanese artist based in The Hague, involves photography, text and bookmaking.
Iwasaki’s works, rich in psychological undertones and characterised by ambiguity, Iwasaki’s work explores personal conflict, self-questioning and impermanence.
Although his photographs feature everyday motifs, seemingly insignificant moments that occur in the gap between things, each image is presented in a way that resists easy assimilation. Consequently, Iwasaki’s photographic expression is often described as ‘poetry without words’.
The textual aspect of his practice—mainly the daily writings journal(The Study of Living in 2100)—plays a fundamental role in the construction of his work.
In terms of bookmaking, he has published 10 artist’s booksーincluding on-going series “A Song from the Laundry Room”ーexploring narrative approaches that the most of the medium of the book itself.
He is also co-founder of the Independent publishing house Cairo Apartment.
Through the weaving of highly personal narratives, Iwasaki’s oeuvre investigates questions about the social, political and anthropological issues we face.

2026I MURI IN ITALIA seikatsu Tokyo, Japan (Text from press release) We are pleased to announce that the artist-run space project seikatsu will be hosting a photography exhibition by JUN IWASAKI entitled ‘I MURI IN ITALIA’. This exhibition reinterprets a series of photographs taken by JUN IWASAKI in 2024, centred on the theme of Italian walls, and attempts to explore how the present moment can be articulated. Can we truly speak of the ‘now’—that unique, unrepeatable moment? JUN IWASAKI’s photographs emerged as a quiet response to this question. In 2012, the artist began taking photographs and, at the same time, launched a blog titled ‘The Study of Living in 2100’, in which he records his daily thoughts. What appears there are nameless landscapes, anonymous moments, and traces of life. Streets shrouded in mist, fluttering curtains, windowsills bathed in light, walls bearing only traces. None of these are records of specific places, but fragments of ‘small stories’ that harbour the aura of human presence. “I felt a sense of sympathy for the subject and took the photographs whilst projecting my emotions onto the atmosphere.” From the artist’s text ‘To Find The Right Chair’ (Cairo Apartment, 2021) The artist’s gaze is aligned with the social poetics of everyday life demonstrated by Robert Adams and Paul Graham. Travelling around the world, the artist aligns personal emotions with the contours of the world, re-examining the meaning of ‘seeing’ in the contemporary era. Paris, Lautoka, Byron Bay, Tokyo, The Hague—in each of these landscapes, the images appear not as records specific to a particular place, but as fragments of anonymous time, exuding the presence of anonymous life amidst stillness and a faint sense of unease. For the artist, photography is not merely an act of ‘seeing’, but an act of describing the world and addressing it whilst folding in emotions. Rising from silent rooms and cloudy air is another narrative, intended to retell people’s lives even in an era that cannot be spoken of. by Masatoshi Chatani (seikatsu) www.instagram.com/seikatsu.tokyo/ Solo

2025Ma - entre les lignes - Yvon Lambert Paris , France (Text from press release) Ah ! Le vieil étang Une grenouille y plonge Le bruit de l’eau. — Bashô The artists featured in this exhibition explore, each in their own way, the notion of space, emptiness and silence. In Japanese, the term “Ma (間)” evokes space, duration and distance. It is the art of almost nothing, of just enough - a way of giving emptiness, time and absence a density that is both poetic and sensitive.

Jun Iwasaki’s To Find The Right Chair pursues musings of the mind forming mental pictures of scenes of conscious- ness. The scene hangs there but occasionally there might emerge a glimpse of a met- aphor.

2025I MURI IN ITALIA Book Jun Iwasaki Jun Iwasaki Den Hague, Netherlands juniwasaki.org/muri.html Only the wall in front of me was born before me, and I will continue to keep an eye on the landscape of the future, more than a hundred years from now. I MURI IN ITALIA captures not only the cityscape of a passing era in the frame. But it also includes the great spirit of the young man who passes through these streets on his way to school every day, and the legacy of the traveller who merely passes by. They become devices that bring to light memories not only of the city's history of the rise and fall that took place here, but also memories in personal histories. I want to research the depth of the ‘Impermanence’ of our lives through the walls. Also, my work purposefully inhabits an ambiguity of meaning, a gap in formality and formal imperfection. This may explain my interest in ‘ambiguous territories’ - territories that don’t prevent knowledge, rather expand it - which are suitable for questioning. It reflects a straightforward aspect of my artistic approach at the same time. Through this work, I would like to clearly convey that our lives are very ambiguous and indeterminate.

2025A White Horse by the Window Book Jun Iwasaki Jun Iwasaki Den Hague, Netherlands juniwasaki.org/horse.html The seventh story of the anthology short story series “A Song from the Laundry Room” is titled “A White Horse by the Window”. This story records a white horse through the window of one of the oldest townhouses on Strandgade 30, Copenhagen. In 1889, one young lady was reading a letter, standing near a table laid with a double coffee pot and a cup. The table, the closed door behind her, and the open door in front of her in the grey room. In 1900, winter dust-filled light was shining diagonally down into the empty room through the window, a pattern of light and shade falling on the wooden floor. The bare paneled walls, without any furnishing or decorations, are in the room. In 1901, the young lady was playing a piano, Butter and two plates were on the white clothed table. In 2019, the young lady was no longer reading a letter, standing beside the table, no dust-filled light shone down into the room; Neither piano melody, nor plates and butter. There was only a white horse standing by the window, telling me a pervasive quietness and mysterious emptiness. ー Photobook 'A White Horse by the Window' ”A song from the laundry room” #7 A White Horse by the Window, 2025 18.2 x 20 cm 20 pages 5 color plates Softcover Edition 50 + 2 A.P Photo taken in 2019 Printed in Kyoto, Japan

2025Every cloud has a silver lining Book Jun Iwasaki Jun Iwasaki Den Hague, Netherlands juniwasaki.org/every.html The Sixth story of the anthology short story series “A Song from the Laundry Room” is titled “Every cloud has a silver lining”. This story records that it is during a return visit to a hotel in South Korea in 2023. In 2019, I celebrated my 30th birthday in Seoul, South Korea. The landscape through the window in the hotel room was a hazy gray. Air pollution levels were so high that day, TV showed me that the government had banned large vehicles and old diesel cars from entering the city. The hazy gray landscape I was looking at through the window in the hotel room was not just air pollution. It seemed to reflect my feelings as I entered my thirties. In 2023, at the age of 34, I visited the same hotel again, this time in the same room. The hotel no longer had the sprawling lobby of its more glamorous days; Replaced by a counter where every part could easily be substituted with something else. There weren’t nor of the receptionists in uniform, which was totally out of trend, and the picturesque lobby’s flower arrangements. ー Photobook 'Every cloud has a silver lining' ”A song from the laundry room” #6 Every cloud has a silver lining, 2025 18.2 x 20 cm 30 pages 13 color plates Softcover Edition 50 + 2 A.P Printed in Kyoto, Japan

This story records winter extraordinary moment when I was in Italy, 2024. On our way to Siena from Firenze, Our rental car wasn't available by mistake. The sun began to set, and the surroundings turned orange. And the lady at the car rental desk said there was a bus stop along the highway, but she was wrong; there was no bus stop. We got to Firenze airport by walking along the highway. The lady at the information desk looked like she was a backpacker in the ‘90s. “Head once for Stazione di Santa Maria Novella and change the bus to Siena. You should be fine to catch the last bus to Siena, if you leave now. Siena is a lovely city, but I would highly recommend you to stay in the city of Firenze such a beautiful and the food is incredible, Have a nice journey !” She said. I said "Thank you" instead of telling her what happened to us today. We had only 5 minutes at the airport but ordered two espresso. I felt such a long moment like a winter night. Nobody told us what was going to happen next. ー Photobook 'Rites of Winter' ”A song from the laundry room” #5 Rites of Winter, 2025 20 x 23 cm 24 pages 13 color plates Softcover Edition 50 + 2 A.P Printed in Kyoto, Japan

2023Ode to Autumn Book Jun Iwasaki Jun Iwasaki Kyoto, Japan juniwasaki.org/ode.html The forth story of the anthology short story series “A song from the laundry room” is titled “Ode to Autumn”. This story started from the words of my doctor when I tried to do nothing. His words brought me to the small space at the top of a narrow tower. Actually, I did nothing. No, I just couldn't do anything. While I did nothing, I just stayed home, had meals like a monk, and saw the doctor once a week. 'You have to go somewhere. You have to go somewhere, to get inspirations or just to travel. You can't stay at home for too long. You are the kind of person who have to keep creating something, making something to keep your mind positive,' my doctor said. On the first Sunday of September 2019, I was in a small space at the top of a narrow tower. My breath was shallow and my heart was beating hard. I was comforting myself by listening to the sound of my camera until the lift came to pick me up. ー Photobook ‘Ode to Autumn’ ”A song from the laundry room” #4 Ode to Autumn, 2023 18.2 x 20 cm 30 pages 11 color plates Softcover Edition 25 + 2 A.P Printed in Kyoto, Japan

My partner Seiko lived in Copenhagen and I visited her in late summer 2019, it was right after I got panic attacked. I took a break from everything and travelled that is meant to be healing journey. Seiko bought a bicycle for me before I arrived. Thus we could bike everywhere. It was on foggy Monday at the late August, weather wasn’t hot as I expected for the season “summer” in general. She didn’t tell me where we go, She just told me “Let’s bike to my favorite suburb in town.” We rode bicycle to up north of Copenhagen, suburb called klampenborg. Well known for a cluster of building project by Denish Modernism Architect Arne Jacobsen. I didn't know much about it then and now. Whatever the reason, we made it to the view. Like serendipity, it was. I found myself in the scene I had seen in my room. Afterwards, I read an article like “Since when travel is becoming like confirmation process?“. It is so? mine definitely wasn't. ー Photobook 'The scene on the wall' ”A song from the laundry room” #2 The scene on the wall, 2023 20 x 23 cm 24 pages 9 color plates Softcover Edition 25 + 2 A.P Printed in Kyoto, Japan

She moved to Antwerp right after I visited her in Copenhagen and started what she wanted to do. ー Photobook 'A memory from something you have or something you have lost' ”A song from the laundry room” #1 A memory from something you have or something you have lost, 2022 20 x 23 cm 24 pages 8 color plates Softcover Edition 25 + 2 A.P Printed in Kyoto, Japan

2019HEAR THE WIND SING Book Jun Iwasaki Jun Iwasaki Kyoto, Japan juniwasaki.org/hear-the-wind-sing.html The book consists of two stories Hear The Wind Sing and Hazy States that both happened in the same spring. Iwasaki make the connection of two stories without hierarchy in this book, which is mirroring of his respect for positive nor negative events on ordinary life. HEAR THE WIND SING is based on true story of how Japanese Author Haruki Murakami began to write fiction when he was 29. In 1978, Murakami was at Jingu Stadium watching a game on the glass outside seat when Dave Hilton, an American, came to bat. According to an often repeated story, in the instant that Hilton hit a double, Murakami suddenly realized that he could write a novel. He described the feeling as a worm sensation he could still feel in his heart. Iwasaki visited same place when Iwasaki is same age as Murakami, tried to get same epiphany. HAZY STATES, I turned age 30 in Seoul, South Korea. Air pollution condition level was too high and government made an alert to all of us that no allowed to get out. South Korea's air pollution has the worst air quality of the 35 richest countries in the world. On high pollution days, the government bans heavy vehicles and old, diesel-using vehicles. After we left Seoul, I saw the news that public transportation was free in Seoul on which a high level of pollution was observed. For me, it wasn’t just air pollution. I felt it was mirroring of my comimg up 30's. ー Book 'HEAR THE WIND SING' 18 x 26 cm 32 pages 19 color plates Offset printed soft cover First edition of 100 copies Printed in Japan
