With a deep background in architecture and painting, Susumu Takashima's works are

created with unique 24K gold pens and ink, brushes, and colored pencils. His works are

made of delicate lines that are pushed back and forth repeatedly, spreading endlessly

like mountain ranges or the wheel of the year, and also like a delicate weaving that

weaves a long veil of color into an eternal loop. The intensity of these lines is worn down

with the writing of the pencil tip, and the ink on the brush is gradually depleted, giving

his lines rich variations and a rich expression of both power and beauty, inheriting the

characteristics of Japanese aesthetics, and his works have been permanently collected by

the Aomame Municipal Museum of Fine Arts and Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Japan.
