Modern Tokyo Times

The contemporary Japanese artist Sawako Utsumi focuses on various art themes related to European and Japanese art. In this article, the focus is on five delightful trees that highlight the beauty of nature.

Each setting is different and the same relates to the angle portrayed by Utsumi. However, at all times, you can feel her passion and love of art.

In Japan, the indigenous faith is Shintoism. So naturally, a connection with trees and spirits can be felt when visiting shrines. Of course, the more famous Shinto shrines will highlight holy religious trees where it is believed that kodama spirits exist.

Internationally, you have countless faiths and mythologies that mention the Tree of Life in various forms. Thus trees within Shintoism and the kodama spirits are just one angle related to a world unseen.

For some individuals, nature is a wonder to behold throughout all stages of life irrespective if young, middle-aged, or elderly. However, for other individuals, the beauty of flowers, plants, and trees blossom with time. Therefore, the connection with nature flows at different levels throughout various stages of life.

Utsumi garners inspiration from European and Japanese artists alike. Equally, she produces her own landscapes. Irrespective of paying homage to past artists – or her landscapes – the result always witnesses Utsumi’s delightful artistic skills. This equally relates to a different nuance and perspective!
