Personal sentimentalism in photography

Nobuyoshi Araki's Binding, photograph of woman in kimono bound with ropes, serene expression, blue-toned backdrop.

67 Shooting Back (no. 117) // Binding by Nobuyoshi Araki is a poignant photograph that delves into themes of beauty, vulnerability, and traditional Japanese aesthetics. Taken in 2015-2016, this work features a woman in a kimono adorned with floral patterns, posed in a form of Shibari, the Japanese art of rope bondage. Her expression is serene yet introspective, contrasting with the tension implied by the ropes. Araki, known for his exploration of intimacy and the human condition, captures a delicate balance between constraint and grace, evoking questions around the nature of desire, restraint, and cultural tradition. The subdued blue-toned backdrop adds a contemplative and almost theatrical quality to the composition.
