Concept

He produces works based on the concept of "time flowing slowly. As the saying goes, time is money, and time is very valuable. Artist Risako Fuji focuses on the concept of time. In everyday life, we are busy and time flies by in the blink of an eye. However, when she visits a hot spring resort and is surrounded by nature or gazes at the beauty of nature, she notices that somehow time slows down and finds wonder and mystery in this phenomenon. His main motifs are lake and seascapes, natural ores, and insects, all of which are created by nature. She hopes that the viewer will feel the beauty of nature and the time spent in it. Risako Fuji started painting figurative paintings when she first started her career, and her activities expanded to the point where she received orders to create murals for stores. She thought she had found a way to work as a mural artist, but then she realized that there was a gap between her career as an artist and what she wanted to build up as an artist. After a period of self-reflection, she came to the conclusion that she wanted to build her career as an artist by creating abstract paintings, and established her current style. She is also particular about her painting materials. She learned the basic use of oil paints at a painting school that inspired her to create her works. She had been using oil paints to create her works, but they were slow to dry and required a lot of time to create. Therefore, he tried using acrylic paint, which dries quickly and is easy to handle. However, compared to oil paints, acrylic paints could not express the luster and indescribable high quality of the finished product. As a result of experimenting with both painting materials, he decided to produce works using two types of painting materials. She is in the process of experimenting with many mediums and materials, and if something new strikes her fancy, she will adopt it. We can expect to see a new evolution in her work.
