Berg Werk

“Berg Werk” by Sincei Yamamoto is a striking photobook about the traces of the vanished coal industry in Akabira, Hokkaidō. Returning 25 years after his youth, Yamamoto documents abandoned mine shafts, industrial architecture, and landscapes caught between decay and memory. Across 40 black-and-white photographs, the work becomes an attempt to stop time and fix a “skin of light” onto places filled with history and silence, blending documentary vision with deeply personal reflection.

We pack books to arrive in the condition described: protected corners, rigid backing, paper cushioning, and a sturdy outer package. Heavier or collectible editions receive an extra layer of protection. Any defects are documented on the product page—packing doesn’t hide condition, it reduces transit risk.

We ship from Germany, usually on the next business day after payment. Germany: typically 2–5 business days, EU: often 3–7 business days; international depends on destination and customs. Tracking is included for all services and is provided once the parcel is handed over to the carrier. During peak periods, transit times may extend. See the Shipping Policy.

Returns are possible within 30 days of delivery (e.g., if the item doesn’t match the description or you changed your mind). Please contact us before sending anything back—we’ll provide the return address and the best return option. Items should be returned in the same condition as received. Once the return is received and checked, we refund to the original payment method. See the Refund Policy.
