In the wild sweep of Araki’s never-ending portrait of Tokyo, shockingly divergent subjects are frequently paired, suggesting such eternal paradoxes as growth and decay, morality and sin. Shijyo, glossed as the marketplace of emotions,” pairs sumptuously photographed flowers with poorly archived stills recovered from Araki’s 1970s film, Death Reality.
