Cui Cui
The works from the series ‘Cui Cui’ are memories of Rinko Kawauchi’s family which she has been shooting for 13 years, including scenes of her family gathering in New Year’s Holidays, the wedding of her older brother, her grandfather’s death, the birth of a new life... The title evokes the twitter of sparrows, a metaphor for the family ties and minute events that accompany each of our lives and mark the way time flies. The photographs evoke the scenery of hometown with smell of people and earth. It could be everyone’s family album, stirring a memory of days gone by.
