Om denne e-bog
Before wetsuits became common, Ama traditionally dived naked, wearing only a waistcloth (koshimaki, こしまき) or a simple white linen garment.
This was not just for ease of movement but also as a spiritual practice—a way to become one with the sea.
In ancient beliefs, the closer one was to nature, the more they could receive the blessings of the ocean deities.
This photo collection captures the mysterious moments of Ama divers in the water, from the shimmer of sunlight on their wet skin to their ethereal presence as they merge with the waves. When their naked bodies are enveloped by seawater, they cease to be separate from nature; instead, they become part of it.
The Ama’s bodies intertwine with the currents, their skin meeting saltwater in a sensory experience both intense and delicate. This is not mere nudity—it is a convergence of history, spirituality, and raw existence. When they reach the ocean floor, touching rocks and gathering shellfish, their movements are graceful and fluid, like a silent underwater dance. Every breath they hold is a measure of time; every resurfacing is a moment between life and the unknown depths.
