Official launch of “Beyond the Mountains “by Maki Hayashia, recipient of the 2020 Singapore International Photography Festival (SIPF) Dummy Book Award!✨📖

Beyond the Mountains is a visual archive of illegal dumping sites in Japan. It serves to reconsider the impact of waste management on nature in all parts of the world, using Japan as a case study. Focusing on large-scale cases that are subject to specific hindrance removal projects under the Industrial Waste Special Measures Law, which expired on March 31, 2023, this body of work revisits illegal dumping across the nation, mainly in mountainous areas during the 1990s and 2000s, along with related important matters.
