Hiroyuki Tajima Biography

Hiroyuki Tajima is best known for his luminous abstract woodblock prints with broad areas of rich, dense color.  While his execution was certainly inspired by western art movements, the spirit of his work is nonetheless based on the ideals of East Asian calligraphy, traditional Japanese painting structure, and a sense of space derived partly from his Zen Buddhist beliefs.  The bold compositions tempered with the solemnity of balance and distillation of form results in works imbued with a sublime presence and meditative spirit.

Hiroyuki Tajima Description

 
"Every Hiroyuki Tajima work seems to glow from behind, as though it incorporated a fluorescent light shielded by a mysteriously textured fabric. ... Tajima's technique consists of brushing intensely colored dyes over a dark-colored medium, imparting luminosity to the white areas while enriching the basic colors of the print. The textured areas fade off into dark planes, seeming to float on a cool liquid. Thus the fascinating, bubbly shapes are set off by simple, relaxing ground forms. In this end, this rare combination of intricacy and confident simplicity makes Hiroyuki Tajima's work both exciting and reassuring." *
