We are a group of photography students based in Tokyo, consisting of seven members with diverse backgrounds and creative experiences. Our team has extensive experience in bookmaking and has published conceptual and documentary photography works multiple times on Chinese social media platforms. In the process of creating photobooks, we experiment with various design methods and materials. We also explore classical techniques such as cyanotype, silver gelatin, and photograms in our photobook creations.

​

The name of our team, "1OST MEMO," means "Lost Memo." While tangible objects can be posted as "lost and found," some things are elusive, like dreams, memories, and culture. We aim to use "photography" as a reference to create memos for these things hidden in the corners of our minds, hoping that each reading and viewing brings a sense of "recovery."

​

Additionally, we hold a keen interest in the works of young artists from other regions. We hope to use this book fair as an opportunity to showcase the works of young Chinese photographers while exchanging artistic ideas with other creators.
