“He would always say: ‘The first word I would strike from the annals of journalism is the word objective’.” - Aileen Mioko Smith, on W. Eugene Smith
.
W. Eugene Smith made his last photo essay about industrial mercury poisoning in the Japanese city of Minamata, helping to bring justice and visibility to the victims.
.
Ahead of the new film 'Minamata' - released in 2021 and based on the story of Smith's time spent making the photo essay and book - we revisit an article in which we spoke to Aileen W. Smith. The co-creator of the Minimata book and then-wife to W. Eugene Smith recounts their experiences documenting the story, and the role of emotional connection in photojournalism.
