Kaori’s presentation was a very personal review of her own art work and inspirations. To contextualise this and extend our critical analysis of her work, she framed her practice by recollecting several important life events, which were pivotal in the refining of her practice.
She identified the impact of her motherhood, life-threatening illness of her daughter and the recent Tsunami in Japan as the three most remarkable stages in the development of her art practice.
Maori has also elaborated on her broad understanding of her creative practice and identified a number of key components, which make a contribution to the holistic idea of being an artist.
