Rinko Kawauchi

Simply Beautiful

 

   

Rinko Kawauchi likes to capture the little details of everyday life that often go unnoticed. Her eye endows ordinary objects and situations with a unique quality that infuses them with beauty, poetry, and emotion. Whether in her books or her exhibitions, Rinko Kawauchi groups her works together in ways that reveal unexpected combinations of forms, moods or atmospheres, and elaborates subtle narratives that invite us to meditate on the infinite wonders of the world and the finite nature of all beings.
