Fukinoto stands on a quiet street in Yubari, Hokkaido. Snow covers the ground. Grey winter light reflects softly. This abandoned structure is a relic of Yubari's past as a bustling coal mining centre.

Butterbur shoots push through bare soil at ground level. Pale green leaves fan outward, thick and waxy, cupping clusters of tight buds not yet open. A second plant stands behind, softer in the blur. Dry grass and fallen twigs line the dirt. Warm light catches the leaf edges.

The series
Streetscapes of Yubari
Yūbari is a coal-mining city in central Hokkaido. Founded in 1943, its population peaked at around 120,000 in the 1960s and now sits at about 6,400. The colliery closed in the 1980s. The city's attempt to recover through tourism failed; in 2007 it became the first Japanese municipality to declare bankruptcy, owing 35.3 billion yen. These streetscapes were taken between the houses, shops, and schools the town no longer needs - most empty, some half-collapsed, some still in use by the people who stayed.
