The Asada Family's Joyful Times

Shallowada Masashi's "Shallowada Family" can be described as full of delightful humor. This young photographer mobilizes his entire family to jointly exercise their imagination. With dad, mom, older and younger brother all participating in the role-playing, they construct one story-filled picture after another under different scenarios: from a fireman team to street gangs, from a rock band to nine-to-five office workers. The performances of this family will absolutely make you amused, bringing onlookers great fun while touching upon Japan's traditional culture at a deeper level. It displays the true face of today's Japanese society, provoking thought - turns out photography can also be like this.
