Yuki Okumura

Inspired by the peculiar subjectivity of the translator, Yuki Okumura | 奥村 雄樹 explores the essential parallelity of worlds and the primary interconnectedness between individuals through overlaps and gaps amongst different artists, often including himself, in terms of work and/or life. As of September 2021, Okumura is appointed as a PhD researcher at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp to perform a quadrennial project titled Any Body, My Self: Conceptual Art and Personhood, which rediscovers the methodology of conceptual artists of the ’60s and ’70s to reduce their personality to the limit as a program with potential double effects: simultaneously towards revealing one’s ‘corporeal self’ and regaining the state of ‘self-other unity’.
