“As a Japanese-American visual artist, I draw upon my Japanese heritage and adopted cultures to explore themes related to traditions, languages, and spirituality rooted in Zen teachings. I connect across space and time to offer viewers visual and mental frames for their spiritual world to linger, form, and exist. The series, KuroKuroShiro, meaning black-black-white in Japanese, offers psychological and internal spaces where viewers can privately immerse themselves in their own world. They are painted with Sumi, made of soot and animal glue. I believe that soot in Sumi represents not only the spirit of ourselves but also that of the land we stand on.” -Nishiki Sugawara-Beda
