Gallery Strenger is pleased to announce a group exhibition by Myriam Eykens, a Belgian sculptor, and Youhei Sugita, a young Japanese painter.

Myriem Eykens has shown extensively in Europe since studying sculpture at the Fine Arts Academy of Ghent in Belgium. She has been based in Flanders since then. Her delicate
curved lines give her work a relaxed atmosphere and sense of comfort. Her terra cotta figures evoke feminine grace and the small simple pleasures of daily life. This will be her third exhibition in Japan, and we are showcasing eight terra cotta sculptures including the heads.

Yohei Sugita has been in the spotlight since graduating from Musashino Art University last year. Sugita has been thoroughly remarkable: his work has been selected for the Mitsubishi Art Gate Program and Tokyo Wonder Seed Prize, and he held his first solo exhibition in Tokyo followed by our group exhibition last summer. His work is distinctive for the thick and pre-dried layers of acrylic paint, which he calls "paint-skin." On display here are six paintings on the "death of the living thing".
