Artist Two: Nobuhiro Nakanishi


Studying for both a B.A and M.A in Fine Art Sculpture in Japan Nobuhiro Nakanishi is a well recognised installation artist. He lives and works in Osaka, Japan.  His work has very intense meaning behind it, in the fact that he wants our bodies to explore spatial awareness and the flow of time. Nobuhiro mainly uses landscapes in his sculptures to achieve this.

Artist One: Karen Hanmer

Karen Hanmer is a Chicago based installation artist and book binder who’s work is based on using text and imagery alongside each other. The inspiration for her works comes from researching into cultural history and the history of science, allowing her work to represent the experience of looking through old photo albums or diaries of intimate memories. To create her pieces she combines the traditional book binding methods with computer software to improve her processes.
