赤い靴 下 (Akai Kutsu Vol. 2), Daido Moriyama, SUPER LABO, 2019

The second half of Moriyama’s red-shoe obsession pushes the motif further into the territory of memory, repetition and urban myth. Expanding on a symbol that has appeared throughout his work, these photographs transform an ordinary object into a recurring visual trigger, suspended between desire and disappearance. The book’s bold graphic design echoes underground magazines and self-published works, while the photographs retain the raw immediacy of Moriyama’s street practice. Published in a limited edition of 800 copies, it forms a companion volume to Akai Kutsu Vol. 1.
