Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Kaino E is a long-term documentary photobook centered on Kunihiko Kaino, one of the last surviving Japanese hard-helmet pearl divers who migrated from Taiji, Wakayama, to Broome, Western Australia after the Second World War. The project began in 2021 through a personal connection and developed over several years of close time spent with Mr. Kaino at his home in Fremantle, as well as during his final return to Japan to visit his 98-year-old sister.The book unfolds in three parts: Japan, Australia, and a central chapter that brings together photographs from three generations: images made by Mr. Kainos father, by Mr. Kaino himself, and by Alsharrah. Spanning nearly a century, these photographs trace a lived trajectory across oceans, linking family memory, migration, and labor through a shared visual lineage.The title Kaino E derives from Mr. Kainos name, which can be read in Japanese as ocean field, reflecting a life shaped by the sea. The suffix E, meaning to or dear in the opening of a letter, positions the book as a form of address. In this sense, Kaino E functions as an ode, a letter to Mr. Kaino and to a generation of divers whose histories are gradually receding.Rooted in collaboration and long-term engagement, the project moves between documentary record and photographic poem. It reflects on friendship, return, and remembrance, while situating an individual life within the broader legacy of Japanese pearl divers in Australia, across generations, borders, and the enduring field of the ocean.

Kaino E est un livre photographique documentaire au long cours consacré à Kunihiko Kaino, l?un des derniers plongeurs japonais en casque rigide, ayant migré de Taiji (préfecture de Wakayama, Japon) vers Broome (Australie- Occidentale) après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le projet débute en 2021 à partir d?une rencontre personnelle, et se développe au fil de plusieurs années de temps partagé avec M. Kaino à Fremantle, puis lors de son dernier voyage au Japon pour rendre visite à sa s?ur âgée de 98 ans. Le livre se déploie en trois sections ? Japon, Australie et un chapitre central ? réunissant des photographies issues de trois générations : images réalisées par le père de Kunihiko Kaino, par Kaino lui-même, et par Saad Alsharrah. Couvrant près d?un siècle, cet ensemble relie mémoire familiale, migration et travail, au sein d?une lignée visuelle partagée. Le titre Kaino E dérive du nom de Kunihiko Kaino, lisible en japonais comme « champ océanique », reflétant une vie façonnée par la mer. Le suffixe E, qui signifie « à » ou « cher » dans l?ouverture d?une lettre, inscrit l?ouvrage comme une adresse. À ce titre, Kaino E fonctionne comme une ode, une lettre adressée à Kunihiko Kaino et à une génération de plongeurs dont les histoires s?effacent progressivement. Ancré dans une démarche collaborative et un engagement au long terme, le projet oscille entre archive et poème photographique. Il interroge la mémoire, le retour et la transmission, tout en inscrivant une vie individuelle dans l?héritage plus large des plongeurs japonais en Australie, à travers les générations, les frontières et le champ durable de l?océan.…
