Chikan Rush is a provocative 1994 photobook by Japanese photographer Ikko Kagari, delving into the controversial and illicit world of “chikan”—a term referring to individuals who engage in groping on crowded public transportation. This work offers a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the clandestine activities occurring during Tokyo’s rush hours, capturing the unsettling intersection of voyeurism and urban anonymity.
Due to its explicit content and the sensitive nature of the subject matter, Chikan Rush is a contentious piece that has sparked discussions about consent, privacy, and the ethics of voyeuristic art.
As a result, copies of this photo book are scarce.
