Yusuke Yamatani shot this series while on honeymoon across Japan with his wife Emi. In the summer of 2014, the newlywed couple packed their tent and clothes and left for a one-month trip from Hokkaido to Kyushu. Yamatani notes, ‘I wanted to first show my wife everything I have seen in my life.’ The title of the exhibition is from the 1950s witty rock ‘n’ roll hit Rama Lama Ding Dong.
