The creation of photographic works never emerges from a vacuum; it is a long psychological journey. Throughout this journey, the photography books that serve as vehicles for inspiration keep creators company. These books, moreover, act as crucial "coordinates" that shape their visual language.

This exhibition invites image creators, curators, researchers, and other professionals to look back at their "private bookshelves" that harbor their deepest thoughts. They share the reading paths marked by dog-eared pages turned over and over, which have ultimately nourished their creative vision.

Far more than a simple display of books, this exhibition pairs "private book selections" with the book selectors' "representative works," revealing the very foundation upon which their image language is built.

We hope to guide the audience into this forest of inspiration, showing how their expertise sprouted from the soil of reading, and eventually grew into their own unique styles.
