A Year in an Instant

インスタント年間

“A Year in an Instant” is a diary made of instant photos documenting the first 365 days of a newcomer in Japan.

Between the 29th of September of 2015 and the 28th September of 2016, I will capture an instant photo and describe the every day occurrences while living in Japan. Up until day 64 the camera used for this diary was a Fujifilm Instax 300 Wide and from that day onwards all photos were taken with a Lomo’Instant Wide. Both these cameras use Fujifilm’s Instax Wide Film (86 by 108mm).

This project was funded using the crowdfunding platform Kickstarter thanks to the help of 80 backers.
