Connotation

  • Photographer
    Asako Naruto

It symbolically depicts an adult who also feels that the future does not seem optimistic about the preciousness of a child's existence at a time when he needs someone to protect him. It depicts the innocence of a child trying to move forward and an adult with hesitant steps.

Born in Japan, Asako is a Madrid-based photographer specializing in street photography. Her work has gained international recognition, winning the Grand Prix for two consecutive years at both the Paris International Street Photo Awards and the B&W International Awards, as well as 1st Place at the Fine Art Photography Awards. In 2025, she was named Best Photographer of the Year in the Street Photography category at 35AWARDS and served as an international juror representing Spain. Her first monograph, All the Fading Words, will be published in 2025.
