{"title":"Surie","description":"\u003cp\u003eSurie (すり餌) is an illustrator from Iwate Prefecture, Japan. Working in a deliberately simple line, Surie combines the soft, graded colour of ink-wash painting with the flat, considered composition of graphic design, in what the artist describes as a designed, modern Japanese (\u003cem\u003ewa\u003c\/em\u003e) style. The subjects are drawn from classical Japanese literature, above all the \u003cem\u003eOgura Hyakunin Isshu\u003c\/em\u003e, whose thirteenth-century poems are given new visual form in figures, costume and seasonal motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlongside original work, Surie produces cover illustrations for novels, artwork for music videos and package design. The work has been featured in the annuals \u003cem\u003eILLUSTRATION 2022\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eVISIONS 2024\u003c\/em\u003e. A first collected volume, \u003cem\u003eSasameuta\u003c\/em\u003e, was published by Graphic-sha in November 2023: more than 150 illustrations, most of them newly drawn around the \u003cem\u003eHyakunin Isshu\u003c\/em\u003e and laid out to be read like a picture scroll, with modern Japanese translations of the poems supervised by Hiroyuki Nagayoshi, a chapter of line drawings and a making-of section.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book was launched with an exhibition and signings at TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, in December 2023, and Surie held a solo exhibition at 9DAYS GALLERY, Shibuya Modi, Tokyo, in 2025. Surie's work is presented in Europe by Tokiol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSelected exhibitions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e2025 Solo exhibition, 9DAYS GALLERY, Shibuya Modi, Tokyo\u003cbr\u003e2023 \u003cem\u003eSasameuta\u003c\/em\u003e release exhibition, TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Shimokitazawa, Tokyo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePublications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSasameuta: Surie Sakuhinshu\u003c\/em\u003e, Graphic-sha, 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eILLUSTRATION 2022\u003c\/em\u003e (featured), Shoeisha, 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eVISIONS 2024\u003c\/em\u003e (featured), 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"surie-monogatarumono","title":"Monogatarumono","description":"\u003cp\u003eArchival pigment print on Canson Etching Rag 310 g\/m² paper.
