Working with screens, monitors, imagery, objects, and ideas from video, film, television, and popular culture, Yonemoto examines recurring themes of memory, the construction of identity, and his third-generation Japanese-American heritage. Here, he projects clouds and images from a Japanese-Brazilian wedding onto a traditional Japanese byobu screen, manipulating our perception through time-lapse and slow-motion photography.
