Event Details
Masako Miyazaki and Yoshimi Lee work independently in the photographic medium, to connect time, place, and memory. With different origins and inspiration for their practice, their paths intersect with their mutual talent for storytelling to expand the narrative beyond what is visible.
Miyazaki uses a parable of a monkey-monster from her country of birth to question our place within nature. She chooses organic processes and materials such as handmade paper and using sunlight. She combines photos with poetry to stimulate the imagination. Lee uses lived experience as raw material, with photography, video, and writing of place to explore themes linked to her identity as an uprooted woman.
