Unscripted Presence by E-WAX

E-WAX is a Tokyo-based emerging photographer and painter. At the age of 27, he moved to New York and held his solo exhibition "GIFT" at PORTER OMOTESANDO the PORTER Gallery in 2019. In 2022, he released the photography book À Mon Seul Désir in collaboration with Kiko Kostadinov. Currently, he continues to expand his practice—centered on his lifework in documentary photography—into the realm of fashion magazines and beyond.

This story places its focus on the street and the individuality of its subjects. Rather than capturing staged moments, it documents time as it unfolds naturally — an extension of everyday life. Fashion does not assert itself here. Instead, it exists organically, becoming an integral part of the individual who wears it.
