Concept

Inspired by the world’s spiritual rituals, Kurihara extracts elements from them to reconstruct them from Kurihara’s own perspective into costumes. The resulting costumes are also used as motifs for paintings and installations.
The artist depicts people facing and accepting death as a universal concept.
