Satoru Toma - Ask the cat - Le caillou bleu 2011

Like a cat gradually exploring a new territory, Japanese photographer Satoru Toma spent a long time roaming the borders of Brussels.  On a regular basis, he boarded a streetcar, bus or metro train and disembarked at its terminus on the outskirts of the city.  In this way, he explored and photographed the limits of Brussels.   Far from historic monuments and row upon row of houses, his photographs invite us to discover an unusual Brussels: rural spaces, woods, wastelands... Often there are neither adults nor children in the picture, but the traces of human activity are nevertheless omnipresent: abandoned objects, small houses or high-rise buildings, beehives or freeways, building sites that are definitely temporary.
