Desiring to know the world, the adventurer travels to remote regions and hones his senses within the harsh, life-threatening conditions he encounters there.Amid such encounters, a moment comes when he experiences an indescribable feeling of fear, tension, and boundless joy: a moment of pure realization that "I am alive." Wanting to experience again that "something that agitates the soul," Ishikawa sets off on another expedition. While a journey in the literal sense of physical movement, Ishikawa's expeditions are at the same time an adventure of the spirit. With his photographs as a portal, viewers embark on a journey of the imagination and glimpse the awesome energy of the realization, "I am alive."
