Paper is the most familiar yet ‘god-like’ material with infinite possibilities of form.
Paper has also been a “yorishiro” (object representative of a divine spirit) for deities to whom people have entrusted various thoughts and feelings since ancient times.
This exhibition presents the world of works by three female artists, Tomoko Fuse, Noriko Ambe, and Ayumi Shibata, who explore different approaches to paper, such as “origami,” “sculpture,” and “paper cutting,” using creative techniques that overturn the conventional image of paper.
