Chikako Yamashiro
Born in Okinawa in 1976, Chikako Yamashiro completed postgraduate studies in environmental design at Okinawa Prefectural University of Arts in 2002. Her practice employs photography and video that explores both herself as well as her home prefecture of Okinawa. Since Your voice came out through my throat (2009), which comprised a film of a performance tracing the words of people who experienced the Battle of Okinawa, she has shifted toward highly fictional approaches using video. She has also recently engaged in collaborative practices in pursuit of encounters that transcend media or category, including theater and film with dance performers. Her solo exhibitions include A Woman of the Butcher Shop at “MAM Project 018: Yamashiro Chikako” (Mori Art Museum, 2012–13), while her recent major exhibitions include “Asian Women Artists”, the Aichi Triennale 2016, “From Generation to Generation: Inherited Memory and Contemporary Art” (Contemporary Jewish Museum, USA, 2016–17) and “Asia Pacific Breweries Foundation Signature Art Prize 2018” (Nominated for the Singapore Art Museum 2018 Art prize). She won the Grand Prize at the Asian Art Award in 2017 and The Zonta Prize, given to a female filmmaker, at the International Short Film Festival Oberhausen 2018.
