Takahiro Yamaguchi

Born in 1984, Kanagawa, Japan.

In 2009 he graduated at the Tama Art University. He did his Master at the Department of Information design and had majored in Media Art. His work is inspired by Graffiti, Street Art, Public art and so on. Since then he has been trying to redefine the meaning of these themes through his art work. Mostly he uses digital media and shows in various formats (installation, device, software, internet art, performance etc).

In 2011 his represented artwork “SENSELESS DRAWING BOT”, done in collaboration with So Kanno, was awarded with the New Face Award at the “15th Japan Media Art Festival”.

In 2013, he was selected as a grant artist by the Agency for Cultural Affairs and had stayed in Barcelona and Berlin for 1 year.
