SOLD OUT

Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.
In the center of this huge city is the Hazaribagh, a leather industry factory zone.
About 20,000 workers work in about 200 large and small tanneries here, and their products are supplied all over the world.
This is a collection of photos taken of the workers from 2013 to 2015.
In making the photo book, Yoshida wanted to leave "traces" of their labor somewhere in the book, not just visually,
I bought the skins that they actually tanned and made leather bookcases at a processing factory. The photo book was placed inside the case and made into a special edition limited to 100 copies.
