After working in the night entertainment industry, as a street-stall keeper and as a truck driver, Yoshinaga strives to become a photographer who specializes in youth welfare. “Zoku” (by Little More Publishing), a photography collection of Boh-soh-zoku (youth bike-gang), becomes one of Yoshinaga’s representative work. He has also photographed youth street-gangs, street gals, and foreigners living in Japan, individuals who are often labeled as “minorities” within Japan. In the recent years, Yoshinaga has participated in the "Shinjuku ID" project which exhibited portraits of everyday Shinjuku people on the temporary wall of a construction site located at the south entrance of the Shinjuku train station. He also serves as the headmaster of a photography workshop school called "Resist," presided by Roony/247 Photography.

鬼海弘雄 今日は鬼海さんと下北で飲んだ。 鬼海さんは東北出身者だが、凄く面白い人で、会えて良かったあと凄く思わせてくれた。 きっと、色んなことを認めることが出来る、懐の深い人だから、楽なんだなあっと思った。 しかも寿司屋でご馳走してもらったりして、そこで久しぶりに食う牡蠣釜飯が凄く美味しくて、凄く嬉しかった。 もう一軒行って、寿司屋から続けて、現在の写真界の話しなど、久しぶりに写真論を論じ合うことが出来たので、凄くいい気分となって、帰宅した。 |
