He prints newspapers and flyers on thinly shaved plywood with silk screen printing, and draws pop animal motifs on top of them. His playful style is connected to his memories of drawing on newspapers with crayons in his childhood with his grandmother, when he loved to draw.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eNewspapers and flyers are easy-to-understand metaphors for everyday life. They are printed with all sorts of information about everyday events, from small local happenings to major social incidents. They are like traces of human life. Despite this, just like most everyday things, they are consumed every day without any special consideration. They are never even read carefully.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eThe pop-deformed animal and lettering expressions are said to link to things that Suma himself is familiar with, such as foreign animation and graffiti.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eRather than loudly proclaiming a strong message, this reflects their desire to have the public feel something by taking things that are close to them and the trends of the world and presenting them as something familiar to them.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eIf you look closely, you will find that there are connections between the contents of the newspapers and flyers and the animals depicted, and there are ironic messages and messages about society. However, suma does not force you to look closely at his works and consider them. The impression of \"pop and cute animal pictures\" that you get when you casually look at his works is also an element of the works, and is a true image of animals that people unconsciously share. There is a line from Chaplin that he holds dear: \"Life is a tragedy when seen up close, but a comedy in a long-distance.\" The essence of animals and humans is the same; from a distance they appear cute, fun and lovely, but when you get closer you can see their grotesque side.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003eIt is up to the viewer to decide whether to view it from close up or from a distance.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e1998 Born in Sapporo, Hokkaido\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2021 Graduated from Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts, Faculty of Arts and Crafts, Department of Fine Arts, Painting Major, Oil Painting Course\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2023 Tokyo University of the Arts, Graduate School of Fine Arts, Master of Fine Arts in Printmaking\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2022 suma Exhibition “Stand By Me”(Contemporary Tokyo)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2022 suma Exhibition\"TITLE ROLE\"(RISE GALLERY)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2023 suma Exhibition \"Familiar Representations\" (DDDART-en-)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2023 JINGART (Beijing Exhibition Center)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2022 2D Exhibition (Daikanyama Hillside Forum)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2022 KUMA EXHIBITION2022 (ANB Tokyo)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2022 BEYOND 〈JAPAN MODERN ART EXHIBION〉(333gallery)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"cvGsUA direction-ltr align-start para-style-body\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"\u003e2021 \"SHIBUYA STYLE vol.15\" (Seibu Shibuya Store)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0540\/1280\/5302\/collections\/suma1.jpg?v=1694917733","url":"https:\/\/pls-art-shop.com\/en-en\/collections\/suma-contemporary-art-collection.oembed","provider":"+ART GALLERY（Online）","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
