Shadows

The Japanese-born Cornish College graduate Kumi Yamashita creates unique art by casting light over strategically placed objects which shape the resulting shadows and form fascinating silhouettes. She lived and showed work in Seattle in the 1990's and early 2000's, and received a fair amount of local recognition, including a Betty Bowen award back in 1995. She lives in New York these days, and shows her work around the world. More on Yamashita's work here.
