Synopsis

In this documentary made by Yoji Kuri, artist Sawako Gōda talks Kuri through the development of her best-known works and the origins of their distinctly Gothic sensibility, including her assemblages of junk and debris picked up in Tokyo and New York, her painted copies of antique foreign photographs, the quickly-produced painted eggs which became her signature, and the sculptures she made from a horse skeleton which she helped to flay herself. Gōda’s commentary on her artistic practice is interwoven with reflections on the practical demands of her life: from the challenges of living abroad and of raising her child as a single mother, to how financial circumstances helped to shape the appearance and form of her objects.
