Book Description

August 1, 2008
Half Awake and Half Asleep in the Water is the second title in our Parr/Nazraeli Edition of Ten.; Narahashi's work has been exhibited in Japan to wide acclaim, but never published in book form until now. The photographs were made while the artist stood chest-deep in the ocean facing the shoreline; through them, she manages to extract the viewer's mind from its surroundings, and one finally succumbs to the hallucinatory power of the ocean. In the words of esteemed photographic historian Kotaro Iizawa, "the feeling of being stranded, however, is strangely comforting."

5.0 out of 5 stars Pictures from the sea, January 22, 2009
This review is from: Half Awake and Half Asleep in the Water (Hardcover)
Half Awake and Half Asleep in the Water is a book with pictures taken from the sea towards land, sometimes even a bit from under the water. It looks mysteriously and playful at the same time. I saw some pictures at an exposition in Amsterdam at Huis van Marseille and was immediately fond of Asako Narahashi's style. Happily I found a book with his pictures.
