Kurumi Kotani 小谷くるみ

She creates paintings on the theme of relationships, signs, and traces of existence.
In her signature series "21g," the entire screen is posited as a window,
leaving traces of someone's touch on the surface of the condensed glass.
Herinterest in mystical and supernatural phenomena makes her paintings reminiscent
of scenes from horror movies, bringing out the presence of an unseen and uncertain entity.
