Artwork by Tsuyoshi Sumi Now Available for Purchase
In conjunction with ADF Art Gallery Project Vol.33 “concorde,” a selection of artworks by artist Tsuyoshi Sumi is now available for purchase.
Sumi’s unique approach involves delicate handwork applied to photographs—such as slits and embroidery—bringing invisible sensations and the theme of “harmony” between people and subjects into visual form.

His works go beyond sight to engage the viewer on a physical and emotional level.
In addition to photographic pieces, this exhibition features a wide range of techniques, all created through analog methods that reflect the artist’s physical presence and acceptance of chance.

*Access is limited to ADF members only. All works are available in limited quantities and will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. For further details, please contact the address listed on the page.
