絵を描く。

刺繍や布のコラージュ作品なども発表。

何時からだったか子供の頃から描き続ける。
それが生活や旅に繋がり、人に繋がり瞬間や場所に繋がり、描き続ける事に繋がる。
繋がる中で絵やインスタレーション、壁画、刺繍の制作など、
solo exhibitionやlive paintなど国内外を問わず活動を続ける。

「彼は街の中の感覚や感情を見えるようにする人だ」(L'ECLAIREUR paris)

profile,

I draw, I paint

I work with other art forms, such as embroidery and collage of the cloth.
I have been drawing and painting since before I can remember. 
The act of drawing opened me up for life and unknown places,
connected me with new people, and gave me different windows of time and place,
further inspiring me to draw.
In this ever-extending network of life, people, time, and place,
I keep myself busy in and out of Japan by creating paintings,
installations, murals, and embroideries,
presenting my visions in solo shows or Live Paint events. 

Statement

Ryo Matsuoka

When did I start to draw and paint?
When asked, I simply say, “Since I was very young.”
When did I start to play? When asked,
I simply say, “Since I was very young.”
I played with drawing and painting.
I would draw lines and place colors.
What was going on in my mind?
If I found building blocks, I would play with the blocks.
But I’ve been keeping my journal by drawing:
drawing when meeting people, and drawing as part of life.
Just a walk often gives me the inspiration to draw.
Drawing on this prompts me to seek faraway places.
Traveling injects me with new awareness.
On the road, I don’t try to make my journal pretty.
I simply draw as I see; it’s my daily journal,
and my way of writing words and codes.
Which reinforces the fact that drawing is part of my everyday life
I don’t try to transcend anything in my art
I don’t try to force any view
No need to stand out or shout a slogan
I draw, standing here and now. Simply keep drawing.
And I feel a sound surrounding me, a never-changing, eternal echo.
The sound demands no attention from me,
and that is why a realization comes to me.
I feel the presence of a human being.
I feel the art of living. Not techniques.
There is no stopping until I stop
 
Encounters with the new
That joyous surprise I learned very young,
It is and will be still mine
Where are you?
I am right here.

いつから描いているのだろう?聞かれると子供の頃からと答えている。
いつから遊んでいるのだろう?聞かれると子供の頃からと答えている。
描く事が中心で。線を引き。色をのせる。
そこにどんな考えがあるのか?
そこに積み木があれば積み木で遊ぶ。
日記の様に描き続ける。出会いの中で。生きる中で。

散歩から出会う事も多い。その先に旅があり。旅から出会う事がある。
旅の絵日記は美しく描こうとはしない。
記号や言葉に近い分、素直に描く。日記だからだ。
そこから毎日の描く事と繋がると。
普段の制作も何かを超えようとはしない。
何かに訴えようともしない。
目立つ必要も無いし主張する必要も無い。
描く。その場所に立ち。ただただ描く。
そこに何も変わらない音がある様に思う。
だから惹き付けない。だから気付く瞬間がある。
1人の人間を感じる。
生きるという事。技術ではなく。
止まらないのだ。止まるまでは。

・・・・・

新しく生まれてくるものとの出会い、
その子供の頃に知った感動を、
今も続けています。
あなたは何処にいますか?
私はここにいます。
