Enjoy her wikipedia description
Kawauchi became interested in photography while studying graphic design and photography atSeian University of Art and Designwhere she graduated in 1993. She first worked in commercial photographyfor an advertising agency for several years before embarking on a career as a fine art photographer. She has mentioned that she continues to work the advertising job. Her background and experience with design have influenced the edits and arrangements of photos in her series.
Kawauchi often thinks about new ways to see her photographs, allowing her to continue to find new meaning and significance in her work.There is little known about her personal life and family, but through her photo bookCui Cui(2005) she portrays the memories of her family, which she has said to have been shooting for over a decade.The photos in said book capture all the ordinaries and emotions of life, ranging from the happiness of childbirth to the heartbreak of death.
Kawauchi's art is rooted inShinto, theethnic religionof the people of Japan.According to Shinto, all things on earth have a spirit, hence no subject is too small or mundane for Kawauchi's work; she also photographs "small events glimpsed in passing," conveying a sense of the transient.
Since she began her photographic career, Kawauchi's photographs contained a unique aesthetic and mood, capturing intimate, poetic, and beautiful moments of the world around her. They often have brilliant and radiant light that give them a dream-like quality. The sublimity of her photographs are further enhanced by her use of soft colors as well as her awareness for the beauty in even the most average moments
