Property from a Private Collector, Spring Isand, GA and Philadelphia

Description:

Akiko Sugiyama (Japanese/American, b. 1947), Garden Zen, Mixed Media, signed near lower right on paper, with artist label and retail tag on verso, in a Lucite shadow box frame.

It is hard to fathom that Akiko Sugiyama's intricate, complex and delicate sculptures are made almost entirely of paper. Even when she explains how she rolls, twists, paints, textures, stripes, sews, wraps and spins the paper she collects from all over the world, we still say, "paper?!" It is however, not only her technical abilities, but her design, aesthetic and imagination that have made her an annual participant in the most prestigious craft shows in the country - the Smithsonian and Philadelphia Museum for almost 20 years.

Since 1984 when she first began showing her work, Sugiyama has been honored with over 60 Best in Show Awards, Awards of Excellence and in 2011 the Smithsonian Craft Show, Gold Award. Sugiyama, who studied painting in her native Japan, lives and creates in Ormond Beach, Florida with her husband, Richard. (AskArt)
