In Halo, Rinko Kawauchi continues the search started with Ametsuchi (2013) and expands it, in a book with black pages, very different from the images of daily life dominated by the subdued chromatics for which she is known. Eerie migrations of birds at night mingle with the dark waves of the sea; ice and its constellations blend with red sunsets and lunar eclipses, all bound together by photographs of ancient Eastern rituals characterized by the use of fire as a force that ignites, as a fragment recalling the stars in the sky. A book to look at and reread, an existential search without words, that invites us to reflect on our relationship with nature and its forces, but not only.
