Little Kettle Written by Yumi Nakaura 2022 Shirohunesha

In this small photo book, photographer Takashi Homma captures the works and studio of Yumi Nakamura, a metalworker who mainly produces kettles, in a casual, A5-size zine-like format, offering a glimpse of the dots and lines and their intimate connections that lie hidden within her work. The book also includes hand-drawn drawings by Nakamura. 

“Line up, overlap, and connect, the small kettles of Yumi Nakamura.”
