An art experience between Fluxus, sound and movement

The guided tour of Yuko Mohri & Ei Arakawa-Nash – How We Meet at the Kunstmuseum Bochum provides insights into an exhibition conceived as a large walkable installation, building on the museum's Fluxus collection. Mohri and Arakawa-Nash respond to works from the donation by Inge Baecker and transform them into a multifaceted play of performance, sculpture, sound, and spatial perception.

Fluxus as a living mode of thought

The exhibition situates itself in the experimental art of the 1960s, where the event, the idea, and the open process became more important than the finished work. This is precisely where the special quality of How We Meet lies: The art emerges in dialogue with space, water, electricity, apple, body, and movement. The result is not silent observation but an aesthetic experience that unfolds while walking, listening, and observing.

Yuko Mohri: sensitive machines and fluid systems

Yuko Mohri, born in 1980 in Kanagawa and living in Tokyo, works with sculpture, installation, and two-dimensional works. Her practice revolves around events, disturbances, and changes that respond to environmental conditions. For Bochum, her installation Moré Moré (Leaky) is particularly relevant, as it translates the leak, the dripping, and the fragile balance between control and chance into a poetic sound sculpture.

Ei Arakawa-Nash: Performance as collective encounter

Ei Arakawa-Nash has been working in New York since 1998 and has been living in Los Angeles since 2019. His performances arise from exchanges with other artists, art historians, and the audience itself. This dissolution of the boundary between onlookers and doers also characterizes the Bochum exhibition: the audience is not only a witness but part of an open artistic process. In 2026, Arakawa-Nash will also represent Japan at the Venice Biennale. ([takaishiigallery.com](https://www.takaishiigallery.com/en/archives/6248/?utm_source=openai))
