This is the first photobook by photographer Yoshiko Kamikura, born in Tokyo in 1959. Just
before leaving New York, where she had been living, and returning to Japan, she decided to go
to Naturita, Colorado, and went ahead with it. What she found there were rock carvings by
Native Americans who once lived in the area, "the archetype of America" connected to the
pioneering era. The photographs she took as a "young foreigner" in that small rural town shed
the mythical image of Colorado and reflect a vibrant America with "landscapes that can only be
found there.".
1959 年東京出身の写真家神蔵美子のファースト写真集。それまでいたニューヨークをはなれ、
日本に帰国する直前にコロラド州の Naturita 行きを思い立ち、決行。そこにあったのは、かつ
てこの地に住んでいたネイティブアメリカンたちの岩絵彫刻、開拓時代に繋がる「アメリカの
原型」。その小さな田舎町で、彼女が「外国人の若者」とした過ごした写真たちは、神話とし
てのコロラドの幕を脱ぎ捨て、生き生きとした<そこにしかない風景>のアメリカを映し出す。
