Nijmegen based Japanese artist Sato Keiko will be the artist of the spring exhibition of [waiting for a cup of tea.]. Drawing from her personal history, Sato makes works that are physically present, but which simultaneously describe the reality of life and society on different levels. Her works symbolize not only death and destruction, but also their opposites. For[waiting for a cup of tea] she modifies one of her floor installations in the garden. The work shows us evidence of continuous flow; after ruin new life will follow in natural circulation. The work implies both destruction and creation. 
Keiko Sato was born in Japan. After her experience of working as a midwife in Japan, she has studied fine art at The Gold Smith’s College in London and The Jan van Eyck Academy in Maastricht. Her recent exhibitons include; [Gelders Balkon 10] Museum voor moderne kunst Arnhem, [reworking] Annie Gentils Gallery in Antwerp, [how to tell a story of my father] Galerie de Expeditie in Amsterdam.
