In March 2024, my brother and I travelled to Shikoku, Japan. We brought bicycles and cameras. We did not bring a plan.
Shikoku is home to one of the oldest pilgrimage routes in the world — 88 Buddhist temples connected by more than 1,200 kilometres of mountain roads, forest paths, and coastal stretches. The route has been walked since 815. People keep returning to it, looking for something they cannot name in advance.
We were not pilgrims in the traditional sense. But somewhere along the way, the journey became something I had not expected. A rhythm took hold — wake, pack, move, arrive, rest, repeat. In that rhythm, my usual way of seeing stopped working. The instincts I had built over years felt like the wrong instrument for this particular road.
Something shifted around the halfway point. I started looking differently. Not at the obvious. Not at the decisive moment. At what was just before or just after it. The images that came back are fragments. More like memory than fact.
The book collects this work and it will be presented at the opening on March 27 — the first time this project is shown publicly.

If this resonated, pass it along.
I've tried to order the book but it says it's not available to ship to my location (Alaska, USA). Do you know if there is some other way or place that I can order it from that might ship here? Thank you!
Super excited it’s finally here, after two years of editing! 🙏🏼
