Following on from his last exhibit, "The World" (shown at Boice Planning in Autumn 2005, Mito Art Tower 2005-2006, BankART NYK Yokohama 2006), Yosuke Amemiya brings to the Yuka Sasahara gallery an installation piece featuring "reflective" videos. The exhibition involves a monitor showing footage of the installation space, placed inside the exhibition space itself. Thus, the audience watches video footage of the space in which they stand, creating a loop, or alternate dimention of sorts. A reality within a reality... or a fiction within fiction?
The title "Translator's High" refers to the high that translators experience after being immersed in the act of translation for a long time.
