You can find lots more of artist Etsuko Ichikawa‘s work at her website including this, taken from her “artist statement” –

My work is a continuing investigation of what lies between the ephemeral and the eternal.

Moment and memory, absorption and evaporation, light and shadow are some of the triggers that inspire me and relate to my work.

Beautiful.
