The Land is Yellow, the Sky is Blue Steven B. Smith Toshio Saeki’s (1945- 2019) archive'The Land is Yellow, the Sky is Blue', is based around Balakliya, a small village in central Ukraine the homeland of my wife and family. This dual language book in English and Ukrainian combines the photographs that I made in this place from 2019 2021 with text written in the shadow of the current war. They are stories filled with dreamy childhood memories and an anxiety shaped by the backdrop of war.
