Top image: ‘Good Luck and Do Your Best’ (2016) by Laura Lewis and Gold Panda

Good Luck and Do Your Best is a new photo book by Laura Lewis as a counterpart to Gold Panda’s latest album of the same name.

In 2014, the pair set out to capture the rich sounds, moods and colours of life in suburban Japan. While getting out of a taxi in Hiroshima, the driver gave them the parting farewell of “good luck and do your best”, a rough translation of the Japanese phrase “gabatte, kudasai.” Struck by the phrase – its positive, motivational sentiment and evidence in the country’s daily life – this became both the title and the linchpin for the project.
