Wabi Sabi A LIMITED EDITION ZINE of 50 signed copies
Wabi sabi is a way of seeing the world that finds beauty and harmony in what is simple, imperfect, natural, modest and mysterious.
Wabi-sabi has been described as "the most conspicuous and characteristic feature of what we think of as traditional Japanese beauty. It occupies roughly the same position in the Japanese pantheonof aesthetic values as do the Greekideals of beauty and perfection in the West." Gavin Libotte moves through the Japanese landscape with a sense of serene melancholy and a spiritual longing, embodied in candid and fleeting photographic moments.
A collection of images from my recent trip to Japan April 2026.
Custom size of 255m x 190mm saddle stitched approx. 36 pages.
