Her work can be described as "kinky surrealism". Mari’s work reflects some of her personal life experiences and aspects of Japanese society. Her remarkable paintings are oil on panel, she makes fantastic mixed media collages as well. Mari has regular exhibitions in Japan, Australia and in New York. At the moment a collection of her work is exhibited at The Gallery Donkersloot in Amsterdam (Leidsegracht 76). The Gallery also has prints of Mari Yamagiwa's work for sale. |

“My works consists in the other side and a dirty part.
The other side is sure to exist.
I accept all existence. I admit the value of all existence.
When you are restrained or restricted by something
that you can't see, or worried, you might find
an answer to the problem in my art.” |

Mari’s Alter Ego is Angie What do I try to express in the art? All except skin color, religion, nationality, sexuality, and gender. A man for whom the woman hopes and a man for whom a man hopes are quite different and, I'm not a man. I'm a woman, and mother. However, such a thing is not a problem. I want to enjoy the reaction that you saw my works. Art is an art and, Art is universal. But, is man a man? Is "your idea" becoming "All people's ideas"? What is defining the problem? The problem doesn't exist here. You only see my works here, because the works made by me isn't a fantasy but a reality. The act of Painting, it is the same as eating, excreting, sleeping, and making love for me. |
