　　中國和日本在藝術上的往來曾經非常活躍。日本畫與中國畫有著密切關係，一般被認為源於中國的工筆重彩技法。對於國畫，如何能革新及將之現代化一直都是中國藝術之重要課題，而日本藝術的影響在這段藝術歷史裏的位置不可或缺。對照中國國畫，日本畫一直吸收並融會外來的文化作為養份，但是，傳統傳承或革新的問題卻沒有成為這種藝術形式的發展的包袱。

　　日本藝術家藤岡聖子由學習日本畫傳統出發，在藝術學院體現如可透過利用傳統物料融會西方現代創作手法，例如拼貼，混合物料等進行自由創作。她的作品有著日本畫秀麗的痕跡，構圖有著西方Art Nouveau色彩華麗而細緻豐富的風格，而圖像則帶有戲劇性的自由幻想色彩。個人創作以外，從她從事時裝品牌的設計師的經驗和發現，也間接令她的作品帶有時尚的味道。各種不同印象拼貼交織成活靈活現的一幅現代風情畫。作品性格之中混雜的一面，正好觀照我們今日都會城市的現代生活。

　　藝術家簡歷

　　藤岡聖子，1982年生於日本愛媛縣松山市。畢業于日本最著名美術大學之一 ---- 多摩美術大學，主修日本畫，及後再于同校研究院繪畫研究畢業。她早于高中時開始學習日本畫並獲獎無數。而她的創作一直遊走于設計與純藝術之間。畢業後於日本流行服裝品牌United Arrows的”facade green”擔任設計師，並兼顧堅持繪畫創作。

　　The exchange in art between China and Japan has been very active. Japanese painting has a close relationship with Chinese painting. It is generally accepted that Japanese painting has an origin of the “heavy color” technique of Gongbi Chinese painting. For Chinese painting, how it could be innovated and modernized is always a significant concern in Chinese art. Within this spectrum of art history, the affection of Japanese art cannot be ignored. In contrast to Chinese painting, Japanese painting has always been absorbing other cultures as nutrients, however, the question of either inheritance or innovation did not become a burden to the development of the art form.

　　Seiko Fujioka learned Japanese painting as her art career launching point. While studying in the art institute, she incarnated the way to fuse traditional material with modern techniques, for example: collage, mixed media, to be freely applied to her art creation. In her artworks, there are traces of the beauty of Japanese painting; the composition has a style of the Art Nouveau, which is resplendent with vivid colors and rich details; and the image in her artwork is theatrical and full of free imagination. Apart from her art, the experience and discovery from her job as a designer of a fashion brand also adds a sense of trend in her work. The various impressions interlace and become a lively patchwork of scenery of modern life. The hybrid character of the artwork happens to reflect our modern life today in a metropolis.

　　Artist Biography

　　Seiko Fujioka was born in Matsuyama, Ehime Prefecture, Japan in 1982. She graduated from one of the most famous art institutes in Japan, Tama Art University, major in Japanese Painting. Two years later she was graduated from Painting Graduate Course from the same school. She learned Japanese painting since studying in high school, and she was often awarded. Her art wanders between design and fine art. After graduation, she worked as a designer in the fashion brand in Japan, “facade green” of United Arrows. In the meantime, she persisted to produce paintings.
