RONIN DE GOEDE

Ronin de Goede is a Dutch analogue photographer, whose work encompasses a diverse collection of experiences, ranging from nocturnal landscapes to intimate encounters, from portraits of the representatives of the local community to the Japanese underground. With a restless spirit and an insatiable thirst for the next image, Ronin explores the darkest and most intimate corners of the world and one’s soul.

Ronin’s recent book project ‘Asakusa’ is a photographic diary of the days he spent following the work of Japanese traditional tattoo artist, master Horikazu, and his clients. Each photograph resonates with the vibrant energy of Asakusa, a district of Tokyo steeped in history and tradition, and reflects the profound connection between the people living there.

Ronin’s works, all hand-printed by the artist himself, have been exhibited in Europe and Japan, gaining the recognition for their profound depth and evocative storytelling. Ronin is currently working on several new projects and collaborations in both Europe and Japan.
