Photographer Taro Hirano has been confronting the question of who he is and who Japan is by looking at America, an object that is a mixture of overwhelming admiration and a part that he does not fully understand. During the photo shoot for “POOL,” Hirano happened to meet an Elvis impersonator, and learned that they call themselves tribute artists and that there are many people like them around the world. This work is a compilation of photographs taken of various Elvis tribute artists from around the world who visited a festival called Elvis Week in Memphis on August 16, the anniversary of Elvis’ death.
