On the Line: Now Here and Nowhere

Satoru Takahashi

How are self, place, and communication established in communities and how can we understand the systems-within-systems of which each is composed?" Takahashi explores these issues through multi-media, large-scale works incorporating body movements, perception and memory. Considering the relationship between memory, history and the architecture of large-scale spaces such as cities, gardens and buildings, Takahashi's works aim to produce both a place of meditation and a meditative experience.
