Fumiyo Yoshikawa April Events: SF Art Fair and Kala Auction

I will be presented by Arc Gallery at the SF Art Fair this year, and it would be a true pleasure to welcome you there.

For this fair, I will be presenting two diptychs composed of Tsunagu 1–2 and Tsunagu 3–4, from my ongoing series “Tsunagu – Threads of Continuance.”

These works reflect a quiet sense of connection—how something is carried forward, transformed, and continues across time.

Created with traditional Nihonga materials—sumi ink, mineral pigments, and touches of pure gold—each piece is presented in a hanging scroll format, inviting a contemplative and intimate viewing experience.

Please visit my website for more information about my work featured in Kala Auction.
