Hiroshi Sugimoto — The Origins of Love
Hiroshi Sugimoto

The Origins of Love

2004

A hauntingly ethereal work by Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto, *The Origins of Love* evokes his signature meditation on time, memory, and the boundaries of perception. Through his characteristically precise and contemplative visual language, Sugimoto explores the primordial and ineffable nature of human connection, dissolving form into luminous abstraction. The work invites the viewer into a liminal space where the ancient and the immediate collapse into a single, suspended moment.
