Sumiko Shiina
Sumiko Shiina was born in Sapporo, studied sculpture at the Department of Sculpture, Faculty of Fine Arts, Tokyo University of the Arts and the Graduate School of the same university, and has exhibited her three-dimensional works in terra cotta and bronze in Hokkaido and other parts of Japan and abroad.
Shiina has held solo exhibitions at the Sapporo Art Park Museum courtyard, as well as in Sapporo and Asahikawa, and has participated in numerous group exhibitions. She is currently a professor at Asahikawa City University Junior College, which became public in April of this year and continues to teach students while continuing her work.
In Shiina's work, plants, a girl's hair, sleeves and collars of clothes, and other objects surrounding human beings are impressively used to create the flow of "wind" that is the motif of her work, and birds and children are sometimes expressed as the wind itself, dancing in the wind.
In this exhibition, mainly bronzes, Sumiko Shiina introduces works in which wind and plants are used as subjects, expressing the atmosphere surrounding humans, the sense of life that children evoke, and the quiet dynamism that foreshadows a new wind ahead.
