B = "Waitan Huabao" N = Ninagawa Mika Japanese beauty
B: color-rich, colorful, fantasy is the most important features of your work, you from the very beginning of the style you like it? N: 1 is the beginning of such a feeling, now more strong. Yokota bell while and Yayoi Kusama is my childhood favorite from the artists. A child at home often look to their works, they then would be a source of inspiration for me.
B: in creation, what is your source of inspiration? N: I did not deliberately to refer to other people's photography, films, even if there will not be seeing a very special feeling. Good or bad weather, the roadside scenery, which in fact is not my source of inspiration. I rely on to guide the creative mood.
B: your work, always look on the one feeling "is a Japanese photographer shot." Our current Japanese style, Japanese-style aesthetic attitude has been a general impression that if you sum up, do you think, "The Japanese sense of beauty" is what kind of things? N: I can only speak from my own point of view works - with the West to the very three-dimensional, have a sense of perspective of the works are not the same, I still prefer from the two-dimensional, two-dimensional perspective of thinking and creativity, just like Japan Ukiyo-e by points and lines constitute a picture of my creation, just as is its continuation. Generally speaking, the Japanese throughout the culture, do not tend to conceptualize something to like. We all are starting from their own preferences, their favorite things to capture them, it is so large you have seen "The Japanese sense of beauty."
B: Your film "Miss" is also very popular in China, was initially inspired by what? N: "Miss," the first is a well-known Japanese comic books, the author is Simon Ueno Yoko dream. I liked this cartoon from a young age, like its author, like the author's way of life. Although this is the Department of costume drama, the performance is the story of the past, but which conveyed to the lives of women, describing feelings, but it is very modern, very real. The book both a strong female side and weak side, both beautiful and gloomy. In our lives, it will also have the existence of such women can be said that the story is different from our daily lives.
B: Anna Tsuchiya very westernized appearance, from her plays such an ancient Japanese films, the effects are surprisingly good. Why then would have thought by her to serve as starring it?
N: Anna Tsuchiya is a mixed appearance with the other Japanese actresses do not like, but if you read the "Miss" this comic, you will find with one of her heroine almost exactly the same look, the people will have seen such a feeling, and from a character point of view is also very similar. So from the very beginning did not hesitate at all, it was decided by her as the female lead.
B: That the film is to be called Anna Tsuchiya custom tailor the film it? Whether it is also a projection of your own personality, reflecting a certain part of your own?
N: can not say that is tailor-made for her, because it is the first to select the works before they decided to act as her heroine, but the election until after the film was found, no one can replace Anna Tsuchiya to assume heroine, the role of non-other than him. Movie characters and I can say that there is a similar part, the film in such a brave woman's personality, is my vision.
B: film each scene are beautifully gorgeous, feels as if trapped in a large fashion scene of the shooting. For you, the feeling of shooting the film, is it more like a fashion in the shooting area?
N: We have movie costumes up and down a lot of kung fu. We will each have a role to set a theme color, and then in accordance with the theme color to design clothing, so the different roles of the clothing also features. Because they can not get a suitable headdress, I also own beads strung together with hairpin as clothing accessories.
B: these gorgeous clothes seemingly traditional, but gives the feeling of stylish, traditional clothing modified to do what?
N: is I told my stylist to discuss together, produced, including the makeup and hairstyle. These costumes are traditional patterns of kimono patterns, but we in the portfolio, we will change some parts may be so, there will be a novelty.
Ninagawa Mika design for the Shu Uemura Make-up Series mika shu Arts and Business
B: As a well-known director Yukio Ninagawa's daughter, your family on the road you took to the arts have what impact?
N: the family with me to engage in photography and there is no direct contact. Because the father is a famous director, and his mother was an actor, but also engaged in the production of crafts such as fabric, it should be said is that they do to create the capacity to influence me.
B: In addition to commercial photography, you also engage in individual works of art, films, advertising design, how do you define the scope of their current career, what for you is the first one?
N: I consider myself as a photographer. Films, if given the opportunity, they will not continue to try and challenge, and part of the business, as long as we can co-operate, will also continue to develop. But for me, photography will always be first.
B: 2006 years, Murakami has written a long called the "art entrepreneurship theory" book, more or less to the arts as a means to run the industry, do you agree with this point of view. Westerners consider him "very Japanese" and the Japanese often do not think so, how can you look at his work?
N: Art and business are inseparable. Takashi Murakami is the artist that I respected, I also like his work. His art very seriously, is a very hard working very hard to create, in this only after considering how to combine art and business. This is the order in which they have, if not reversed, to the arts for the footing, then I think no problem.
B: from the fashion piece, to figure, landscape, still life, to advertising, CD covers, pictures, and movies, your work involves various fields. Have you personally most interested in what is it?
N: I think it was movies.'B: you just make the mother of his son under the age of 1 years old, such a life change and identity change, whether it have an impact on your creative?
N: life has changed quite a lot, because to a child-oriented. However, my creation, but no change. I also find it incredible, but the fact is really so.
