Itsuka ita aruiwa itsuka iru tokoro (The Place One Once Live, Or Will Live Someday)

Hasumura Yasuko (b. 1958)'s technique involves layering ultra-thin washi paper on top of meticulous coats of black ink to create a sense of flowing organic forms. She believes that the air trapped between the fibers of the paper is also layered-up in the painting, contributing to the unique texture and visual effect of the artwork. Finally, a thin layer of ink is added to complete the piece, resulting in a mesmerizing interplay of organic materials such as ink, water, washi paper, and air.
Hasumura Yasuko holds an M.F.A from Tama Art University and has exhibited her work in various countries, including Lineart 2007 in Belgium, International Artexpo 2009 in the United States, Salzburg Museum in Austria, and Ueno Royal Museum in Japan.
