Kazumi Hoshino was born in Nagoya, Japan. She is an artist who has lived and worked in Maine since 2006. Her primary work is sculpture using stone. She cares about the balance and harmony of her internal image with memory, vision, and perception of her actual physical experience. Her work is influenced by the relationship between humans and objects in the natural world. Recently she has been exploring multidisciplinary work with natural materials in which she developed a silkscreen method able to utilize simple elemental materials from nature, including stone.

Hoshino currently shows in galleries and museums and creates public and private commissions in the United States and Japan. She is currently a 2023 MFA candidate at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
