A unique photo-narrative depicting the Tosa Inu, the Japanese fighting dog. Initially, the dogfights are depicted as a purely Japanese cultural phenomenon and the Tosa Inu begin assuming characteristics symbolic of Japanese culture. The dog then emerges into a Swedish landscape, accompanied by the weight of Japanese history. Through playful, black and white photographs, the photographer resolves a potential juxtaposition through this pictorial insight into the meeting of two cultures.
