Junior sumo wrestlers of Japan, 2008<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Steven Siewert<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Although sumo was recently dethroned by baseball and football, it continues to be an extremely popular sport in Japan, especially since it is the oldest and is linked to Shinto. This ritual dimension is to be found both in the rigorous organization of the wrestlers\u2019 working day, with their strict schedules and their diet, and in the shape of the space where combat takes place, the dohy\u014d<\/em>, barred to women under the pretext that it must never be defiled with blood. Instead of concentrating, as is customary, on the excessive weight and chunky appearance of the athletes, the photographer preferred to monitor the training schools.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

He does this with a classical tone and style of writing, in black and white, in line with the essay tradition and a magazine approach to in-depth themes in photojournalism. The focus is on the organization of the space, emphasizing at the same time the fragility of the bodies, their flexibility, their extreme youth and the intensity of their confrontation. Very logically, the succession of moments is described chronologically: warming up, training, learning and combat, in their different phases.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
