JTT is pleased to present a site-specific performance by artist Aki Sasamoto. Working with sculpture, dance, video, and sound installation, Sasamoto weaves theatrical narratives that are at once personal and abstract. This carefully orchestrated and arranged installation features transformed lamps, espresso machines, and other familiar objects in play. Sasamoto uses gesture and performance to highlight the nuance of romance and its clichés. She will activate the space with performance on scheduled dates throughout the run of the exhibition that dramatically alters the architecture of the gallery space and result in the detritus of each performance becoming part of the exhibition.
