Portfolio > For loved ones lost

After losing her father, numerous aunts and uncles, close friends, and a special dog named Harry all within a 3 year span, Maruyama began transposing her grief in a different direction: diverging from the earlier works from the Black Mirror series, she turned to opposing forms and colors, so as to try to see beauty within loss. Borrowing some titles from sad songs, the work aligns with the loss with lightness.
