Kumi Yamashito's most well known work are his light and shadow pieces that play with visual illusions and his nail and string portraits. The piece I have posted in one of his mail and string works. It consists of three simple materials that, when combined, produce the portraits: a wooden panel painted a solid white, thousands of small galvanized nails, and a single, unbroken, common sewing thread.
