Artists

IGUCHI Naoto

Born in 1971, Mie Prefecture. He creates portrait photographs by placing his face and favorite items from his surroundings on a copier and adding movement to evoke a sense of fluctuation. This unique expression, stemming from interactions with facility staff, has become a daily routine that has continued for over 22 years. It has now evolved into works produced through impromptu collaboration with visitors to the facility. Recent major exhibitions include "Opening and Connecting" (Okazaki Mindscape Museum, Aichi, 2024).

SHUJI Takashi

Born in Hyogo Prefecture (1974-2021). He painted with a matière that conveys thickness and movement by layering pastels repeatedly. Through bold composition and coloring, as well as Shuji's unique perspective, his works evoke the inherent formal beauty of commonplace everyday objects. Major exhibitions include "Art Brut JAPONAIS" (Halle Saint Pierre, Paris, France, 2010), a solo exhibition "Shuji Takashi: A Quiet Gaze" (Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art, Gallery Wing, Hyogo, 2021), and numerous domestic and international exhibitions and collections.

TSURUKAWA Koji

Born in 1973, Hyogo Prefecture. The countless red dots scattered across the paper surface are stains created by the bleeding of oil-based pen ink that has penetrated the paper. Deformed letters and numbers, sounds, and words he heard, along with his own emotions, are written in the spaces between the dots as if they are floating there, evoking quiet moments of creativity and daily life. Recent major exhibitions include "Art Brut 'Humanity and Nature in Japan ーBEYONDー' " (Borderless Art Museum NO-MA, Shiga, 2022).
