YASHIMA MISHTO
In 2014 JNP Books will publish my first photographic book ”Life of a singularity”, which is a metaphor of each of us. The story of human beings, separate singularities who try to hide and rid of their singularity in any way possible.
This book is my story. Nude models my words.

BIO.
I live and work in Berlin since 2003. I have been working with the medium of photography since 1994.
My photography focuses on the exploration of the deep-running waters of eroticism. My collaboration with amateur models is aimed to depict the unarticulated sexuality, exhibitionism, and censured fantasies of a metropolitan culture which is still very far from sexual maturity.
After initial misadventures in 2002, I "became a woman", played by one of my most cherished models at exhibitions and other public events. In 2007, I again assumed my male identity, hoping that my art would finally find an audience that will approach it without any sexist preconceptions. I am fighting the overbearing censorship which affects both male and female, which acts before any gender discrimination, chaining the human being with any regulated kind of sexual inclination.
