美萌菜大流行！！  Mimona BOOM!!

Mimona Ishikura  Artist In Residence Program

本次Office339将举办日本札幌的年轻女艺术家石仓美萌菜在中国的首次个展”美萌菜大流行!!” 。

1986年在日本北海道札幌出生并成长的石仓美萌菜主要从事的是油画的创作。她把在日常生活中女性所感受到的挫折感、劣等感、别扭感、欲望，还有那些「希望自己到哪都受欢迎」、「不想去打工」「希望有钱」等类似的小幅波动情感进行解读并以此为主题来创作的。

本次展览是Office339与日本北海道札幌NPO法人S-AIR共同合作，作为上海-札幌艺术交流合作的项目之一。从11月上旬开始，艺术家居住在上海进行艺术创作活动，这也是她初次的国外上海的居住创作，每天生成的情感和体验都令她惊讶。另外，通过在人民公园、外滩等上海的游览景点进行双六等艺术活动实践，更加深了她与本地的艺术家和市民之间的交流。

本次与大型作品「石仓美萌菜双六」一起展出的还有她的另外8幅最新绘画作品。此外，在12月16日的开幕招待会上，艺术家也将亲临画廊，并和到场的朋友们一起掷骰子玩双六，通过这一方式向大家展示她在上海生活经历及感受。。

Office339 is pleased to introduce Mimona Ishikura’s first solo show in China “Mimona BOOM!!”.

Mimona Ishikura was born in Sapporo, Hokkaido island in 1986. She mainly uses oil paints in her artwork. The typical girl’s emotion of everyday’s life such as “frustration”, “inferiority complex”, and wishes such as “I want money.”, “I don’t wanna go to work.” are regular topics shown in her artwork.

Office339 (Shanghai) and NPO S-AIR (Hokkaido island, Sapporo) have established an exchange program between the two cities. As Office339 AIR Program (Artist In Residence), she came to Shanghai in November. During the residence program, she interacted with local people and artists through the game Sugoroku in touristic area such as People’s park, the Bund, University and so on (Sugoroku is a Japanese traditional game where you throw a dice and then move your pawn according to the figure).

In this exhibition, we will introduce “Mimona Ishikura sugoroku 2010.11.7- 12.26″ and 8 other latest artworks.

We are pleased to invite you to the opening party at 6pm on December 16th.
