Yuto Nakajima's first photo exhibition, '7okyo color space/Tokyo Color Space ~#COT7DF~,' opens August 7 at Sony Imaging Gallery Ginza. The show pairs street snaps he shot over seven days with portraits of him as a subject, plus a making movie. A linked pop-up store runs in Harajuku.
The exhibition grew out of 'GAROU,' the photo serialization Nakajima started on MEN'S NON-NO WEB in 2024. Sony, after seeing the series, invited him to hold a show at Sony Imaging Gallery Ginza, a venue he describes as one any photographer aspires to.
Nakajima spent several months on production, from location hunting to shooting, and handled the retouching himself. He concentrated shooting over seven days, taking about 6,000 photos of Tokyo streets and light. The title, '7okyo color space/Tokyo Color Space ~#COT7DF~,' carries those feelings.
Portrait works featuring him as the subject are also on display, alongside a making movie that follows his production process. A pop-up store tied to the exhibition runs at a separate venue in Harajuku.
