Words by Koichiro Kimura

For his photo series “Words”, Japanese artist Koichiro Kimura attached a camera to the ceiling of his family home. For two years, the camera automatically took a picture every ten minutes, over 100.000 photos in total. The resulting images – selected by Kimura – offer an unadulterated record of the life of a family.
In the intimate photos, it seems like the scenery is already talking to us – showing us parents sleeping with their child, the kid taking a nap, the mother reading to her son. Perhaps there is no need for words.

“If the photos allow you feel like you are looking at a picture book, as if you are looking down into and watching over the house of another family, then I’ve succeeded.”
