Omschrijving werk
Hiromi Nishimoto: "Confrontation with contradictive thoughts or situations in daily life is the main intention of my work. I work with very simple pairs of diverse notions, aspects or thoughts, and represent them as to one can relive the confusion. I want to emphasize the fragility of facts or ethical notions that have no decisive definition or value in themselves, but are variable depend on the context. I create the mixture of the two notions by pointing that any of the two can be accepted and also denied. I basically make performative works at daily scene, and present the documentation in installation or video format ".

the Best Person of the World |
| Jaartal |
2010 |
| Omschrijving |
The space where this installation is shown is a former residence, currently an exhibition space Walden Affairs in Den Haag. The work is revealed only in the combination of the publication and the emptied presentation room, in where it was filled once with the world’s-best-person’s possession-like furniture then photographed and placed in the publication. When an audience realizes the synchronicity of the empty space and the publication, it draws the person into hypothetical reality where ethical judgment can be distinctly stated. |
