ichi-go ichi-e

is a Japanese expression meaning one time, one meeting.

It refers to the idea that every encounter is a unique, fleeting moment. A moment that will never happen in the exact same way again.

Ichi-go ichi-e is a collection of photographs taken in such passing moments – on trains, at crosswalks, in cafes, through windows. These are scenes from everyday life.

It invites us to pause,
to be present,
and to find beauty in what disappears.
