多年来，山口洁子会把吸引她而呈现在眼前的景象一一绘画下来，香港的老建筑物及街景成为了她近年间纪录下来的作品，她的作品中也包括了不少世界其他知名地方的建筑物。
山口的专业是都市设计与建筑历史，她毕业于加洲毕克莱大学，并于京都大学取得博士学位，主修东南亚建筑历史。自二ＯＯ六年开始至今年五月，她曾在中文大学历史系任教，与香港结下了不解之缘。
她的作品是以简单的线条描绘，再加上淡淡的色彩。山口本人表示，其目的在为这些于社会蜕变中仅存的老建筑物或老街景带来简朴的喜悦。
在日本滋贺县出生及成长的她，对古建筑及风景反应比较强烈，同时深受它们的影响。这次展览是山口在精艺轩的第二次个展。
Sketching street scenes is her way of appreciating the building structures that are confronting her. Kiyoko Yamaguchi has been doing just that wherever she goes.
Trained as an architectural historian and worked professionally as a university instructor, Yamaguchi has depicted numerous Hong Kong street scenes since she started living here eight years ago.
Her paintings are usually rendered in simplistic outlines and then touched up with light pastel colours. She says that her aim is to express a simple happiness around old buildings or streets in the midst of contemporary changes.
Yamaguchi received her bachelor degree in Architecture from the University of California at Berkeley and a doctorate degree from the Kyoto University majoring in history of architecture and urban planning in Southeast Asia.
The Hong Kong Sketchbook exhibition is to opening on August 7, 2014, at Art Beatus’ Wellington Street space. It is Yamaguchi’s second solo exhibition in Art Beatus Gallery.
