A screening of works and a conversation with Masayo Kajimura, a Berlin-based video and installation artist. In her work Masayo creates a rich multi-layered flow of images that draw on settings and motifs from various global locations and cultural settings. Sharp insights and provocations underlie these evocative, lyrical, and associative projects.

Masayo Kajimura was born in Berlin in 1976, coming of acte before the fall of the Wall. In 2004 she received her MA in Cultural Studies and Art History from the premier programs at the Humbolt University. Already during her studies she began exhibiting video and installation work. She then studied advanced media arts in Gifu, Japan. In 2011 she had two solo exhibitions and more are in the planning stages. Although based in Berlin, she travels between Germany and Japan and has had artist in residence stays in multiple global locations including most recently in Estonia. In addition to her own artistic production, Kajimura works as a curator of the influential Made in Europe film series at the Werkstatt der Kulturen.
