Calling light

Shoko Tsuji / embroidery artist based nearby Paris, France

I started this long-term body of works in 2016, after opening up to the invisible realm. I got naively caught in wonderment but permanent shadow work is even more necessary. Could it become a recount (the Wounds, the Rise, the Merge, Blossoms) of an inner transformational process, for now I keep embroidering.~2025

music : Noemie Saland, artwork and poem : Shoko Tsuji

Of a snake and a dove
