Autor/Autorin: Miki Okubo
Born in 1984 in Sapporo, Ph.D on Aesthetics, Sciences and Technologies of Arts, lecturer of University Paris 8. She is specialized on new modalities of the representation of the self, such as arts of intimacy, auto-fiction, selfportrait. Her dissertation is titled "Representation of the self in the age of mobility/liquidity”. Curator & art critic.
This book focuses on my experimental practices and research on the possibilities of "arts awareness,” through medical and ecological approaches for public understanding of "good health,” "hygiene in life” and "sanitation,” as well as social/ethical/cultural contributions from artistic activities that have made particular medical methods comprehensible for a public audience. I have been strongly interested in the phenomenology of the human body and the contemporary corporeality characterized by our post-modern era, within which we are constantly surrounded by digital technologies, new media devices, as well as a flood of information.
