About the Item
Kazuya Ushioda’s The Sound of Prayer (2021) is a striking figurative oil on panel that captures a moment of quiet reflection. Measuring 44.12 x 11.87 x 0.70 inches, this tall and slender composition features a single figure clothed in a white kimono adorned with delicate blue floral motifs and cinched by a vivid red sash. The woman’s eyes are closed, and her hands are gently positioned near her head, suggesting an intimate state of concentration or contemplation.
Painted in oil on a carefully prepared panel, this original, handmade work showcases Ushioda’s meticulous technique, evident in the rendering of subtle skin tones and nuanced folds of fabric. The vertical format accentuates the graceful poise of the figure, drawing the viewer’s gaze downward from her serene expression to the richly detailed kimono patterns. The neutral background highlights the subject’s form, creating a harmonious interplay of color and space.
Executed in 2021, The Sound of Prayer stands as a testament to Ushioda’s dedication to capturing stillness and introspection in contemporary figurative art. As a collectible piece of fine art, it represents a fusion of traditional attire and modern painting sensibilities. Its understated elegance and refined craftsmanship make it a captivating work for both seasoned collectors and those newly discovering Ushioda’s artistry. Whether displayed in a private residence or a public gallery, The Sound of Prayer invites viewers to pause and embrace a moment of tranquility.
Artist Bio:
I was born in 1983 in Tochigi Prefecture (Japan), where there is a World Heritage site.
I decided to become a painter when I was in high school.
The high school I went to was in Mashiko-Cho, famous for ceramic art, and I had the opportunity to touch on the basics of ceramic art in class.
After that, I went on to Bunsei University of Arts, went on to graduate school, received my master's and doctorate degrees.
In the future, I would like to convey the knowledge I have learned not only in Japan but also in overseas university institutions. I work with the intention to play a part in the development of art not only in Japan but also in the world.

Stephanie Serpick, A New Fall 4, 2017, Oil On Panel, 16 x 20 inches, Realism
By Stephanie Serpick
Located in Darien, CT
Intimate paintings represented by unmade beds and tossed sheets, absent of any human evidence, on intentionally blank, somewhat rough backgrounds. The empty bed in these paintings represents a place for grief, isolation or healing. As such, the work speaks to our shared feeling of grief, with the understanding that while we all suffer in our individual ways, suffering is universal.
Source material for this work are photographs the artist has both taken and found, and the intimate size of the paintings references the intimate nature of the subject matter. The backgrounds of the paintings are repeatedly painted and sanded, to create a frame and backdrop for the bedding that is flat, yet rough with work and time. The bedding itself is seen from different perspectives, but still indicates a scene of desolation and despair.
While the series began in the fall of 2016, recent events—including the pandemic—have provided a new dimension to the work and have compelled Serpick to consider the themes in light of these events. Our forced isolation and the challenges it has brought to our physical and mental health provides an additional shared experience from which to consider grief and eventual healing.
