Yuki Tsuji was born in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan in 1983.  He earned his master degree at the Department of Architecture, Graduate School of Engineering, Kogakuin University, Japan.  He presides over the “plant sculpture institute.”

He studied ikebana (Japanese flower art) under Reiko Takenaka.  Tsuji’s ikebana based on architecture is expressed as unique and original space art that goes beyond existing frameworks, such as architectural design, scenography, sculpture, and product design. Humans, architecture and plants – Tsuji considers the inter-relationship among these three elements and expresses them into a space in a spectacular way through fusing plant vitality and human creativity.  In 2013, Tsuji was engaged in scenography of the Noh Performance at the Château de Fère in France in commemoration of the 650th Zeami and the 680th Kan’ami anniversaries.  He was assigned as the Artistic Director for “Shizuoka × Cannes × Cinema,” a cultural exchange program between Shizuoka and Cannes, in 2015.  He has presented a variety of art works through collaboration with several brands both domestically and internationally.  He has expressed the Japanese view of nature and aesthetics on a global stage through his art works.
