Kawakita’s camera has taken her all around the world, and her global experience has inspired in her work; most notably her connection to the Japanese, American, and European cultures. Her work has been featured in many publications such as Time, Marie Claire and Vibe. Some of her recent shows included a 2009 exhibition at Afad Gallery in Turkey and an exhibition in 2008 at the NMM Galery in Milan, Italy. Also in 2008, she was awarded the Prix de la Photographie in Paris for portraiture and was selected as one of Japan’s top 100 photographers in 2007!
