In 2019, Daisuke Yokota was awarded the Kimura Ihei Prize, one of the most important awards for photography in Japan, for two projects: his self-published artist's book Sediment (2019), and his monographic exhibition Room Pt. 1 presented in May-June 2019 at Guardian Garden space in Tokyo.

Sediment is a new step in Yokota's research of the materiality of photographic objects. For this over-sized book, he developed layers of unused large-format color film using boiling water to allow new colours to emerge as the emulsion melts and silver oxidies, then scanned the damaged sheets of film which can no longer be developed. Printed in this handmade artist's book are 200 of these results. The book is bound using transparent, thick PVC sheets, with screws.
