Japanese artist makes a change
From Raphael to William Blake, from Caravaggio to Klimt, a cutting-edge Japanese artist, Kimiko Yoshida, will show off her unconventional outlook at some of the greatest painters of all time with art aficionados at the RuArts gallery in Moscow.
ґґHer photography exhibition merges reality and illusion, paradox with logic, improvisation with tradition, and beauty with banality.
Kimiko Yoshida moved from her native Japan to Paris more than a decade ago and has been closely studying the peculiarities of European society since then.
She has an eye for the richness of colors, the breathing texture of costumes, the lively mimics of faces and the figurative expression of body language.
Her self-portraits reflect a fusion of style and sentiment. It`s a borderline of ultra modern trends and long-forgotten traditions of the past. Often inspired by haute-couture French fashion, Kimiko Yoshida creates her own images, where 17th Century designs marry today`s fashion.
"Art is a subtle process of transformation, a zealous struggle against the routine state of affairs," she says.
Judging by her evolving philosophy, the Japanese artist will never run out of ideas.
