Book description:

" 'Small changes in point of view can lead to big changes in consciousness. I think this is the role of photography and it’s what makes photography interesting.'

Naoki Honjo’s parochial birds-eye landscapes and cityscapes appear at once familiar and removed, simple and disorienting, real and fake.

The Tokyo-based photographer ingeniously manipulates lighting, scale, perspective, focus and colour to invoke a sense of small-scale falseness about the environments we live in."
