Yoichi Kamimurafs solo exhibition called Grandmother, Prologue was held at the artist-run space Space Wunderkammer in Toshimaen, Tokyo between the 15th and 29th of March, 2015.
The exhibition consists of a fictional account based on my grandmotherfs memory who spent her youth in Yanji, Manchuria and a soundscape which I composed after collecting various environmental sounds in my daily life and during my trips.
Landscapes and peoplesf lives in my grandmotherfs memory, recorded in the interview,are ambiguous and fragmentary.
In the installation composed of the parallel time axes of sounds and of words,the landscape in my grandmotherfs memory and the one I see at present are far apart from each other, yet coexist with a small connection somewhere present between them.
