Tsuyoshi Anzai is a Japanese contemporary artist based in Chiba. He explores the interplay between human and non-human perspectives by working with ready-made plastic objects, including everyday items and waste. His work removes the original functions and meanings of these artificial objects, prompting viewers to reconsider their relationship with the material world. Anzai's kinetic sculptures, crafted from everyday items, move in unexpected ways, challenging the boundary between animate and inanimate. He also creates sculptures from plastic debris collected on beaches, imagining them as relics studied by non-human archaeologists in a distant future. His work has been exhibited at the Ludwig Museum (Budapest), 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art (Kanazawa), Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and Künstlerhaus Bethanien (Berlin).
