Weekend Features: ‘Constellation’ series portraits made of thread and nails by Kumi Yamashita

It’s An Art World

New York artist Kumi Yamashita creates incredible portraits consisting of a single length of thread wound around nails in wood in a vastly varying in density, web-like pattern. This ongoing series is titled ‘Constellation‘, and I cannot even begin to image the planning and creative vision that goes into the creation of these pieces. Well done.
