The series explores Mount Fuji from different locations, seasons and perspectives, reflecting the mountain's importance in Japanese geography, spirituality and cultural identity.

Combined with carefully controlled lines, rhythmic wave patterns and a bold composition, the color gives the scene extraordinary depth and intensity.
