Mayumi Ayuzawa “Japanese Heart”

This collection of works is a valuable record of masterpieces by artist Mayumi Ayuzawa, who sublimated traditional Japanese beauty into the present day, in one place.

Mr. Ayuzawa has studied for many years as a master of pressed painting, wood grain dolls, and costume dolls, and has been highly regarded at domestic and international exhibitions.

This expression goes beyond the boundaries of classical forms and establishes a poetic worldview that reflects the inner world and emotions of the characters. Kabuki, Noh, elegant scenes of Heian, and graceful images of women—all of these appear three-dimensionally through her delicate handiwork and deep spirituality.

Not only is the technique that lies in the overlapping of glittering colors and intricate cloth, but the creative attitude that harbors a soul is penetrated, and every time you turn the page, you will be drawn into that sense of tension and beauty.
