Artist Background

Fumika Tsuchitori, born in 1995 in Hyogo, is a graduate of the Kyoto University of Art and Design, having completed her master's degree in 2020. Now residing in Kyoto, her works frequently explore complex relationships between figures, exhibiting a blend of oil, acrylics, and occasionally spray paint. Her paintings evoke a sense of intimacy, often portraying characters whose outlines blur and mingle, suggesting deep emotional connections filled with both warmth and distance.

Exploring Themes

In Tsuchitori's works, each piece invites interpretation: from the exhilaration of love to the lonesomeness felt in the backdrop of a spring evening. The use of striking colors like pink creates a dialogue about emotional states—delivering not just visuals but sensations tied to personal experiences of longing and connection. These interactions are reflected not only through visual dynamics but also through the emotional undercurrents of each painting.

Throughout this exhibition, attendees can expect to connect with pieces that illustrate her deep reflections on relationships. Tsuchitori's previous works like 'I and You' encapsulate duality in human connections, reflecting both tenderness and violence—a continual theme in her artistic exploration.

Artist Statement

In her personal narrative, Tsuchitori asserts that her dualistic use of figures represents not only love and comfort but also fear and pain. This exploration stems from her understanding that emotions can coexist; the contradictory nature of the relationships captured in her art reflects realities of romance and conflict, deriving meaning from their proximity.

Recent Exhibitions

Fumika Tsuchitori has marked her presence in various contemporary art exhibitions, including files in ‘To Sway and Surround: Japanese Female Abstraction’ in Taipei and her solo exhibition, ‘Frames and Breath’, showcasing her growth and thematic breadth as an artist.
