Golden shadow 黄金の影 精神科医・心理学者のカール・ユングは人は自分のシャドウ、隠したいネガティブな影 以外に　自分自身に眠る創造性、情熱や才能、良い人格さえも無意識に抑圧または受容できずにいると説き、それをGolden shadowと呼びました。 このZineはその黄金の影を自身の中に発見して、個(self)を思い出していく個性化のプロセスを写真で表現しています。 The Golden Shadow Carl Jung taught that we do not only hide a negative shadow; we also unconsciously suppress our dormant creativity, passion, talents, and good character. He called this the "Golden Shadow." This Zine uses photography to express the process of discovering this golden shadow within, reminding us of the journey toward becoming our true self. A5 36pages

In her photographs, various elements that seem to be opposites, such as lightness and darkness, fragility and strength, coexist, and the viewer is naturally led to a consciousness of death and life.
