Constellation: Thread & Nail Portraits by Kumi Yamashita
Constellation: Thread & Nail Portraits by Kumi Yamashita
“Constellation” is an ongoing series of thread and nail portraits by New York artist Kumi Yamashita.
“Each image is constructed from a single unbroken black thread wound through a dense array of galvanized nails mounted on a painted white board, meaning that the darker areas within the portrait are formed solely from the density of the string.”
