Yoichi KAMIMURA / 上村洋一

上村洋一 / Yoichi KAMIMURA

Born in 1982, lives and work in Chiba City.

Yoichi Kamimura explores phenomenon such as weather and astronomy through the sense of sound and vision. It is how to capture the existence of ‘nature’ which cannot be grasped by only our sensory experience, and it is to face the ‘environment’ between human and non-human things. He has been mainly producing installations by using field recording, and presenting them in and out of Japan.
