In rejecting the sanitized and idealized images often populating family albums, he embraces the beautiful chaos of familial existence--its messiness, love, tension and intimacy--all unfolding in the tight quarters of his family home in suburban Yokohama. His images, spanning 13 years since 2005, observe his family with both proximity and distance, reflecting his own sense of detachment from them. In their vibrant, overflowing compositions, they suggest that to truly understand a family, one must embrace its chaos. The scattered objects, overlapping lives and unavoidable closeness all speak to the ways in which family shapes and consumes us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Motoyuki Daifu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Little Big Man Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/11\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.90h x 9.10w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947346116","brand":"Little Big Man Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44935544209545,"sku":"9781947346116","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_7d642fbd-0d64-47d4-b3fe-4da42a7c506b.jpg?v=1763448266","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/motoyuki-daifu-my-family-is-a-pubis-so-i-cover-it-in-pretty-panties-9781947346116","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
