Installation: Ryoko Akama - shimatsu 13
Japanese-Korean artist Ryoko Akama performs with her installation in the Recital Room.
始末 (shimatsu) definition: beginning + ending, management, dealing settlement, cleaning up, getting rid of a (usually bad ) end result.
Ryoko Akama is a Japanese-Korean artist working with installation, performance and composition, residing in Huddersfield, UK. Her site-specific works infuse both aural / visual occurrence as one entity, creating ephemeral situations that magnify silence, time and space. Interested in the nature of relativity, culture and system, her artistic practice examines environment, architecture, conflict and fluidity of being.
A solo performance series, Ryoko's shimatsu projects her ideas with contraptions made out of objects, domestic appliances and mundane electronic devices, creating a subtle, sometimes violently silent, listening situation. She is interested in heat and temperature and uses these phenomena to trigger kinetic movement, exploring a thermo ecosystem.
This shimatsu, number 13, exclusively examines the festival’s venue, delivering a durational performance that constructs its own spatial/aural experience
