Photographer’s Note

With pure white faces, delicate gestures and small figures, for me geishas are like fairies... Like fairies they vanish in a flash leaving you with a sense that you had just dreamed...


Spoting geishas in Kyoto at winter time is almost an impossible task. They semm not to go out so often and there are no festivals and dance music concerts which a simple turist like me can attend, as in summer and spring times. I felt luck enought to get a glimpse of a group of maikos coming out of school in a van. Fairy creatures with modern gadgets...
