Koyama’s first photo book for children entitled “The City Breathes and Ages” was published as one of “A World of Wonders” series which originally started in 1985 by FUKUINKAN SHOTEN, the largest Japanese publisher specialized in children’s books. In this book Koyama has developed his original concept which was “the city breathes and metabolizes as a human’s body, and the surface of it shows this constant change” by showing the works in spread pages with the landscapes and the closed-up shots next to each other. The whole shooting was done in the neighborhood where he grew up, which was one of the concepts “to rediscover the views that you see everyday”. This book was distributed to kindergartens and elementary schools throughout Japan.
