"Illuminance" in the title means the psychological quantity of brightness that illuminates a flat surface that humans perceive. Kawauchi sees this as the fundamental theme of her photography, and has compiled the photographs she has taken over the past 15 years into a book.

It is the gaze, and the attitude of putting all kinds of phenomena into the square screen without discrimination. The end comes suddenly, but the lives of the living continue. By delicately weaving together disparate motifs, Kawauchi creates a landscape that condenses the beauty and melancholy of this world in one of her photobooks.
