White on white, the igloo stands in the paddy field, but the spring awakening is just around the corner. Amorphous and human shapes rise up and intermingle, a needle pricks and the green of a plant sprouts forth. With clear, clean lines, «Kamakura» elicits conflicting feelings – a prickling such as after a pinprick. Or just before a kiss.
