Series of photos taken by Sachie Kumano during a working session in July 2003. "Through taking photographs I have realized how beautiful the smallest everyday details and all of the living moments are. Photography has made me thankful for the world and my life. I would like to capture the sparkling moments of people integrated in their environments and things we feel invisibly. Watching Jean Pierre engrossed in his work was inspirational. I hope he knows he is not only creating his art but also he himself is Art to me. All of us are Art." Sachie Kumano, Photographer
