Yuki Okumura
Door gevestigde structuren te vormen waar toespraken en acties elkaar demonstreren, onderzoekt mijn werk de mogelijkheid van (mis)interpretatie van de ene taal naar de andere, het onzichtbare voor het zichtbare, en van binnen naar buiten, als een middel om paranormale realiteiten op te bouwen met betrekking tot zichzelf en anderen, naar alternatieve manieren van interpersoonlijke communicatie.
