I stopped by the Yossi Milo Gallery this past weekend to check out Asako Narahashi’s show “half awake and half asleep in the water.” Up until, I had seen only one photo from the show, and I thought I was in for a desperate trip of struggling between life and death. But surprisingly the series of images, which are shot at various locations around Japan using a waterproof camera, feel tranquil and curious. I felt like a creature from the bottom of the sea, having just made my way up to the surface to check out this new world.
