About this event

Point Reflection, a geometric phenomenon of one point mirrored across an axis, is the title for both the exhibition and new performance by Aki Sasamoto. In Sasamoto’s exhibition, kinetic sculptures  including  snail shells, melanin sponges and sugar packets perform abstract concepts of craving and unpredictability as the artist's proxy. Taking place in the highly structured environment of the gallery, Sasamoto’s live performance responds to questions such as “when did you decide to go the other way?” with signature improvisational acts including unscripted spoken words, modified objects, blowing air, live sounds, and lighting.
