Krash Japan vol.10 is out now!
Krash Japan is a magazine covering cultural information , but it’s not one more of those culture-art magazines from major, fancy and fashionable places. It’s from Kurashiki – small and charming city located in Okayama / Japan. The other surprising thing is that Krash Japan has ben beeing distributed internationally for free – but it’s not one of those cheap-looking free papers full of ugly advertisements. Krash Japan is a great quality magazine collaborating with many local, and international artists.
I had a chance to contribute to the issue 4. It was winter 2006 when chief editor (Yutaka Akahoshi) came to Wroclaw/Poland to make one day photoshoot with me for Krash Japan. It was a fashion story featuring jeans from Okayama (Jeans’ capital city of Japan).

I was also one of the artists invited to Kurashiki to create my own story as a part of Beyond Obscurity project. I won’t forget the time I’ve spent there, and kind people I’ve met there.

I also took photographs for fashion pages of issue number 7. Our models – Zhou, and Jiajia -were Chinese guys temporarily working in one of the hotels in Kurashiki.
Krash Japan was designed as a cycle of 10 issues.
Last week issue 10 has been published. Project has been finalized.
Congratulations Mr Akahoshi! Krash Japan was a beautiful thing.
