TOYO

丸と線で描くダイアリー

TOYO(トヨ)は、日々を過ごす中で垣間見る人の感情の動きや自分の心の動き等をテーマに、空間を外から眺めるように、俯瞰し、その中から感じ取ったモノ、コトを描く。 TOYO曰く、日常を描いているため、自分にとっての絵とは、ある意味「日記」に近く、文字を書くように色などを載せていくという。

TOYOの作品は、抽象的な色面で、アクリル絵の具を中心にペンや紙、糸、梱包資材等を使い、多彩な色彩の中に人や心等に見立てた「丸」や「線」等を走らせ描くのが特徴である。
時に花束のような溢れんばかりの色と丸で描いてみたり、時には余白を生かし落ち着いたら色と線で構成してみたりと、天気が変わるように画面の表情が変わるため見る者を引き寄せる。
見る者が共感したり、胸が高鳴ったり、ノスタルジーな感覚を抱くのは、自分たちが普段から感じていることを記しているからなのかもしれない。

Diary with Circles and Lines

TOYO looks at things from a bird’s-eye view as if she looks at space from the outside, and depicts what she senses from them, on her theme of emotional movements of people whom she has a glimpse of or those of her own mind in the passing days.
TOYO says that painting for her is more like a diary in a sense, as she depicts everyday life and adds colors as if writing letters.
Her work is characterised by depicting people and their minds in the form of circle and line of various colors, with mainly acrylic paint, pens, paper, threads and packing materials in the abstract color fields.
Using sometimes various colors in abundance like a combination of a bouquet and circles, and at other times composing of calm colors and lines, making use of the whitespaces. Expressions of her work change as weather changes, which fascinate the viewers.
The viewers would have sympathies, excitements or nostalgic feelings at her works which show what people are feeling in daily life.
