Hiroshi Sugito — the purple tree
Hiroshi Sugito

the purple tree

2006

A luminous purple tree emerges from a dreamlike landscape in Hiroshi Sugito's whimsical yet meditative work, rendered in acrylic and glitter across two joined wood panels. The shimmering glitter lends the composition an otherworldly, almost celestial quality, amplifying the quiet magic that defines Sugito's distinctive visual language. Organic forms and a soft, fantastical palette invite the viewer into a world that hovers gently between the natural and the imagined.
