Body cinema: Adapting for distortion by Hiroaki Umeda

Akiko Sato: Shelter for the Feeling

‘Shelter for the Feeling’ is a space installation consisted of  sound, lace, fibre-glass bars, foam and canvas. It’s based on personal story of Japanese contemporary artist Akiko Sato exploring her life voyage and the history of Croatian tradition of lace-making.
