"In rural Japan the passage of the year is marked by festivals and rituals that have changed little for centuries. Elaborate outfits, crafted from textiles as well as branches, straw and elements sourced from the natural environment, are donned in agricultural and fishing communities throughout Japan to celebrate seasonal rites of fertility and abundance. Yokainoshima (literally 'island of monsters') explores the extraordinary range of masks, costumes and characters that reappear with each returning season. Charles Fréger's photographs combine acute documentary attentiveness with individual portraiture in an entirely fresh and distinctive style."--Publisher's website.
