+ Motoi Yamamoto Salt Sculptures




Amazing labyrinths of salt made by Japanese artist Motoi Yamamoto What makes some of these pieces even more spectacular in my opinion are the broken walls of salt and the piles of salt behind the labyrinths. It just gives us more visual ques about the material, the work put into it and also what the material means when in conjunction with the design.
See below other sculptures all using salt as a medium. From walls to spaces to patterns. Do check out Motoi’s website for more images as well as videos of the making of, which is just as beautiful to watch as the final pieces. See more images below.
