            Nami Yamamoto, a native of Nagoya, Japan, is a visual artist who lives and works in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  She received her BFA from Aichi Prefectural University of Fine Arts and Music; Aichi, Japan, and MFA from Maryland Institute, College of Art / Mount Royal Graduate School of Art; Baltimore, MD.  Through her drawings and installations, Yamamoto explores transitory states in the natural world, both structural and phenomenological.  Fascinated by moments of "in-between", her work calls attention to states of flux or transitions from one state to another, translated through a variety of diverse materials.
