In Conversation with Shiro Takatani

Shiro Takatani (Japan)

From installation, exhibitions to performance, Japanese artist Shiro Takatani is known for his use of multimedia to create multidisciplinary, visually-arresting works. One of the founders of experimental Japanese art collective Dumb Type, Takatani also works as a solo artist. Takatani’s evolution as an artist has also seen him collaborate with cutting-edge musicians like Ryuichi Sakamoto and Rei Harakami.

Moderated by Akiko Takeshita, Producer of Performing Arts + technology, Yamaguchi Centre for Arts and Media [YCAM].
