Kyoto University of Art and Design Graduate School Diploma Show
We visited the graduation and diploma show at Kyoto University of Art and Design.
Among all the works we saw, the artist whose pieces made the strongest impression on us was Fumika Tsuchitori, a graduate student at Kyoto University of Art and Design.
Kyoto University of Art and Design, Miraikan F201
Fumika Tsuchitori is a painter whose practice centers on the series “I and You,” in which two figures are depicted, and “a scene,” which portrays abstract forms.
Her materials are chiefly oil paint, accented with acrylic and lacquer spray. Many of her works have a high degree of abstraction, offering a deeply resonant viewing experience.
Installation view
For the exhibition room at Miraikan, she had painted the walls white and the floor clean, essentially building her own white-cube gallery. It must have been enormously demanding physical labor, but for an artist who cares this much about her exhibition space, we cannot help but be impressed.
Fumika Tsuchitori, “Image of Love (Here Is Much Brighter Than There / Here Is Much Darker Than There)”
The Kyoto University of Art and Design graduation and diploma shows are well known for the fact that works are offered for sale on the spot. Fumika Tsuchitori’s diploma works, with the exception of some pieces, came with a price list. Even though we visited on the day before the show opened to the public, most works were already marked sold — a clear sign of her popularity.

On February 8, 2020, when the awards were announced, Tsuchitori was named the recipient of the Graduate School Prize.
After graduation, she plans to open a studio in Kyoto and pursue her practice in earnest. We look forward to seeing what comes next.

Kyoto University of Art and Design Graduate School Diploma Show
Kyoto University of Art and Design의 졸업전·수료전을 찾아갔습니다.
필자가 본 작품 중 가장 인상 깊었던 작가는 Kyoto University of Art and Design 대학원생인 Fumika Tsuchitori 씨의 작품이었습니다.
Kyoto University of Art and Design, Miraikan F201
Fumika Tsuchitori 씨는 두 인물이 등장하는 《I and You》 시리즈와, 추상적인 형태를 그려내는 《a scene》을 중심으로 작업하는 페인터입니다.
재료는 유화 물감을 주로 사용하고, 아크릴 물감과 래커 스프레이를 악센트로 활용해 화면을 구성합니다. 작품 대부분은 추상성이 높아, 깊은 여운이 남는 감상 체험을 선사합니다.
전시 전경
Miraikan의 전시실은, 벽면을 하얗게 칠하고 바닥을 깨끗이 다듬어 스스로 화이트 큐브 갤러리를 만들어냈습니다. 상당한 중노동이었을 텐데, 전시 공간에 이렇게까지 정성을 쏟는 아티스트에게는 오직 좋은 인상만이 남습니다.
Fumika Tsuchitori 《사랑의 이미지 (이곳은 그곳보다 훨씬 밝다 / 이곳은 그곳보다 훨씬 어둡다)》
Kyoto University of Art and Design의 졸업전·수료전은 작품을 그 자리에서 판매하는 것으로도 유명합니다. Fumika Tsuchitori 씨의 수료전 작품 또한, 일부를 제외하고는 프라이스 리스트가 준비되어 있었습니다. 일반 공개 전날임에도 이미 대부분의 작품이 매약 완료된 상태여서, 인기를 실감할 수 있었습니다.

Miraikan과는 다른 장소에 있는 교내 아틀리에에도 작품이 전시되어 있었습니다.

2020년 2월 8일, 발표된 각 상 중에서 Tsuchitori 씨는 “대학원상”을 수상하였습니다.
수료 후에는 교토 시내에 아틀리에를 마련하고 본격적인 작가 활동에 나설 예정이라고 합니다. 앞으로의 활약을 기대합니다.
