Salt Painting by Motoi Yamamoto


If you keep on doing one thing, should have some reasons, maybe because one thing, one person or enthusiasm. Japanese artist Yamamoto Motoi was born in Hiroshima, six years later in 1994, his younger sister died from complications due to brain cancer, Yamamoto use his way to memorialize – salt painting. I can’t imagine the painful he undergo, but these sprawling salt painting looks like a best way to heal his sadness.
