It’ s hard to connect Tokyo and Buenos Aires, because they’ re such two different cultures.
After 10 years of living in Japan and 1 year in Argentina, the beauty of Argentina is liberating my restrain from Japan.
If you think Tokyo is a city of black and white and deeply isolationist,
Buenos Aires is more likely to be dark blue and dark red, with a messy, realistic sense of life.
So I decided to mix the photo of Tokyo and Buenos Aires together, they’ re so different, but somehow, I feel that
they’ re telling the same story. It’ s a series not just about Japan and Argentina, is about how the two culture
struggled, fighted and came to a harmony inside me.
I used to be an otherworldly bird, flying in the skies of Tokyo, now I’ m an ant scurrying around in Argentina.

Mumu Ko, Born in China, studied film and sociology in Japan, then started to travel the world when she was 18.
As she was achieving great success in Japan, she decided to give up everything and come to Argentina for another adventure.It’ s hard to find a regional culture that defines her, or maybe she is a mix of all different cultures.
Speaking of her own word, “experience” is the most important thing in her life.So the photo you’ re going to see is not about magnificent architecture or landscape, only a world from a different angle ‒ an angle of an global nomad.
