A collection of works published in conjunction with Furuya's solo exhibition held from April 1 to May 6, 1995 at the Winterthur Museum of Photography, Switzerland.
In addition to the photographs from the previous book, this second book, Mémoires, includes photographs of flowers taken in East Berlin and Dresden, a series of portraits of Bosnian conflict refugees, The portraits of his son Komyo, who was born in 1998, were reconstructed into a series of works throughout the book without intervening text or chapters. The first "Mémoires 1978-1988" had a strong impression of a straight I-photograph narrative, but from this book onwards, the feature of this series, in which photographs are persistently dialogued and reconstructed into new works, emerges strongly. . "When, where, what, why" - questions without answers will deepen further from this book.
