拍品資料及來源
日本當代藝術家山口英紀以其嚴謹細緻、模擬程度極高的水墨畫作廣為人知。山口於2001年取得築波大學藝術與設計系文學碩士學位，並於2002至2004年赴中國美術學院研習傳統繪畫技法。從中國回到日本後，他將印章雕刻與中國書畫所學融會貫通，並將其應用於探索「臨書」繪畫──即透過模仿、描摹和寫意，模仿表現性技法或傳統書法。
山口以當代視角描繪過往歷史，運用傳統水墨畫技法和攝影光學中的畸變概念，使當今西化及現代化的日本躍然紙上。此作《往來～御徒町～》捕捉了日間列車駛達高架車站禦徒町駅的一刻，以及穿梭於東京摩天大廈之間的路軌下人山人海的街景。山口的作品耗時無數，體現出他對細節的執著，因為他相信「精通技法是尊重層層傳統的途徑之一」1。山口運用「臨書」的模仿技法， 以極細的畫筆在多層幾乎透明的薄紙上描畫，營造出帶有舊照片氣息的畫作。傳統水墨畫以描繪自然景觀為主，源於想像中的理想場景；山口則反其道而行之，以復古的濾鏡效果和對過去的緬懷之情定格都市交通的逼真一刻。
