Outline

During AXELVALL’s first stay in Tokyo in 2005, Park Hyatt Hotel, known to him from the film Lost in Translation, was the only place that felt familiar. He took his very first photo of the hotel from the bus coming in to Tokyo. Through the years, he kept photographing Park Hyatt, only ever taking one shot from each angle using the same camera.
