Sasaoka has published short movies with using puppets, which seems to swim against the stream of digital technology by intention and to intend to revive "the sense of touch" sunk into images. In this exhibition, she will present new video installation "Atem" in which she has expressed her aging and anxiety.


In my childhood, I wanted to hurry up and become an adult. But as I got older, I was given roles and acted as stereotyped someone. I had wished I could reset my life again and again like TV games.
If I were the god, I would make a bath to reset our lives. Taking the bath, any child could go back to pure babies.
Even being incredibly spiteful, even being always studying every day, even feeling strange or something wrong with their own sexuality or even their feelings being hurt, any child could start again their lives from babyhood.
