Her past self, her present self and her future self - these are what emerge brilliantly from the blank white canvas. This program introduces artists from across Japan for whom expression is not a choice, but a compulsion. Not influenced by existing art or trends, nor by education, these artists and their works are gaining worldwide recognition. Devoted to creation, not for anyone else or even for themselves, they have a powerful presence. This episode features Kon Emiko (42) who lives in Hiranai, Aomori Prefecture. The program delves into her creative process and attempts to capture her unique form of expression.
