The jury
The jury described Suchan Kinoshita as “a uniquely accomplished artist who has, over many decades, achieved a highly comprehensive and complete oeuvre. The jury's deep appreciation for her visual language extends to the fact that she is an active and committed pedagogue, teaching and mentoring the next generations of artists. Her sensitivity to time and space, and her enduring curiosity for life, create works and projects that are often process based, and in which the viewer becomes aware of the moment. That she interweaves a profound conceptualism with relatable lived experience, generosity and humour has generated the highest possible regard from the BelgianArtPrize 2025 jury."
