Aki Sasamoto questions the peculiarities of daily life through sculpture, movement, sound, video, and dance. In her installations, she arranges found objects as sculptures, then creates improvisational performances to respond to the bodies and objects present. In the 2010 Whitney Biennial, Sasamoto attempted to understand the mathematical structure of the Lorenz Attractor, an attractor that describes the two-dimensional flow of fluid, through performance art, in a work entitled Strange Attractors (2010). In her 2015 Frieze Installation Coffee/Tea, visitors were invited into a three-dimensional personality test, where they were led along a series of corridors that corresponded to their answers to the test. In addition to her own work, Sasamoto collaborates with musicians, choreographers, scientists, and scholars. Sasamoto is currently based in New York, and has shown work at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo and at Performa 13 in New York City.
