"Amnesiac" (2012) is inspired by life in a contemporary metropolis, where people yearn for home and nature. For Moriyama, the title "refers to what we have forgotten, but also suggests a residual pang, a memory imprinted, and a pervasive sense of something unresolved. It is the journey of one woman navigating the space between paranoia and rapture in the middle of the digital age."
