Creation as an incessant inner search
When Natsumi Kaihara captures the shadow of something that inspires her, she then sinks into her workshop and begins to create.
She is constantly in search of forms and processes that directly connect to her emotions. Natsumi has the need to spend time with materials and share with them her intimate feelings and personal memories.
