Do you have a trash can in your heart?
There are plenty of feelings pent up in me.
Why don’t you take a peek into the trash can of your heart and see what’s inside?
Are there thank yous and goodbyes that you couldn’t say to your loved ones?
Are there warm colors that you can no longer use because of sadness?
Are they really trash?
Yoko Kitazaki was born in Kyoto and learned oil painting from an early age. She loved the layered colors of “Water Lilies” drawn by Monet, and she wanted to express the changing light. She majored in dyeing at Kyoto City University of Arts, and in the past, dyeing and oil painting were the means of expression.
With the changes in the world in 2020, she began to create abstract paintings using acrylic paints. Monet’s colors and the dyeing design still influences her expression.
Her current activities are exhibited at overseas exhibitions such as Divulgarti in Italy. The theme of her production is based on duality and contains the message of “Seeing the whole phenomenon from the viewpoint of the mind. ”As a feature of the work, she changes the smooth paints to“ movement, flow, luster, lumps, and cracks” and so on. This is due to her idea of rebonding the pigments.
