Jumping Japanese businessmen show their daughters how to defy stereotypes

Aoyama’s series, published as a book in Mar. 2015, is called SOLARYMEN With Daughters!

Shot over three years in locations all across Japan, the photo series is part of SOLARYMEN, a 10-year project to investigate and document Japan’s office workers. The neologism “solarymen” combines Japanese word sora (sky) with “salarymen.”
