YASUMURA Hinako

Yasumura Hinako uses a technique she calls “summoning and joining” to piece together debris washed ashore from the ocean, reshaping it into a single form. When she applies this restoration technique—which involves summoning fragments from another vessel to fill the gaps in a broken one—to driftwood that has lost both its original location and purpose, time and geography from different origins begin to coexist within a single outline. Born in Hiroshima Prefecture in 2000.
