Hideka Tonomura

​殿村任香

Photography Artist

Born in 1979, she graduated from the Broadcasting and Visual Arts Department at Osaka Visual Arts. She began photographing in 2002. In 2008, she made a striking debut with Haha Koi / Mother Love, published by Akaaka-sha, a candid portrayal of her own family life that left a strong impression on the public.

In 2013, she published They called me Yukari with Zen Foto Gallery, capturing the lives of night-time workers while working as a hostess in Shinjuku’s Kabukicho. Since then, she has actively presented her work both in Japan and internationally.

In recent years, she participated in the group exhibition Love Songs at the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris in 2022, where her work mama love  was acquired for the museum’s collection. That same year, she took part in 10/10: A Celebration of Contemporary Japanese Women Photographers, a program featuring ten female photographers at KYOTOGRAPHIE, the Kyoto International Photography Festival. In 2024, she participated in Transcendence, a group exhibition co-produced by KYOTOGRAPHIE and SIGMA at the Arles International Photography Festival.

She is also scheduled to exhibit at Paris Photo in 2025 with Zen Foto Gallery.

1979年生まれ。大阪ビジュアルアーツ放送・映像学科卒業後、2002年より写真を撮り始める。2008年、自身の家族の日常を赤裸々に撮った「母恋 ハハ・ラブ」を赤々舎より出版。鮮烈にデビューし、世間に衝撃を与えた。2013年には、新宿歌舞伎町でホステスとして夜の人々と生きながら撮った「ゼィコードゥミーユカリ」をZen Foto Galleryより出版し発表して以降積極的に作品を発表しつづけ、国内のみならず海外での活躍も目覚ましく、近年では、2022年パリのヨーロッパ写真美術館で開催されたグループ展”Love Songs”に参加し、参加作品である「母恋 ハハ・ラブ」がヨーロッパ写真美術館にコレクションとして収蔵された。

また、同年にはKYOTOGRAPHIE 京都国際写真祭において開催された10人の女性写真家によるプログラム”10/10 現代日本女性写真家たちの祝祭”に参加し、2024年にはアルル国際写真祭ではKYOTOGRAPHIEとSIGMAで共同プロデュースされたグループ展”超越”にも参加した。

また、2025年のパリフォトにZEN FOTO GALLERY より出展を予定している。

 

2019年に、彼女が開始したがんと闘い向き合う女性のポートレートプロジェクト”SHINING WOMAN PROJECT”は、非常に多くの反響を呼び、現在もプロジェクトに取り組んでいる。
