Hoji Tsuchiya
Kinkan Gallery will present the exhibition Hoichi: In Progress from September 13 to October 5. Hoji Tsuchiya is an animation artist who creates works using drawing, paper cutting, and collage and is active both in Japan and internationally.
His works explore a wide range of themes, from the absurd to science fiction and fable-like stories. Using camera work unique to animation, his densely illustrated drawings and paper cuttings writhe, transform, and spring to life, creating a distinctive sense of groove and momentum that draws viewers into the work as if submerged in it.
Hoichi: In Progress introduces the current state and background of Tsuchiya’s short animation "Hoichi," a lifelong project inspired by the Japanese ghost story "Hoichi the Earless." The exhibition presents cuttings, original drawings, tools, and making-of footage used in the production, revealing the work’s process and current stage while inviting viewers to imagine its future development and eventual completion.
We invite you to immerse yourself in the work and its creative process.
