Biography:
Yoshimasa KATO
Born in 1982, Aichi, JAPAN.
I produce the media art in around 2004.
Now, I am producing mainly the kinetic light sculpture that uses the optical fiber.
The work is called "micRokuro". Rokuro is potter's wheel in English.
So, The spectator can touch the work, and can change shape.
