Japanese photographer Akihiko Okamura. A documentary was made about Okamura's work in Ireland
Akihiko Okamura was born in Japan but moved to Ireland in the second half of the 1960s. Here, he documented the war in the north. He was a war photographer who worked in Vietnam and Biafra.
Okamura worked in color and created still lives and abstractions as part of his journalistic work. His work thereby distinguishes itself from the more raw black-and-white images that most other photojournalists created of this subject matter.
