Sachi Miyachi
Netherlands／Artist
Born in Tokyo, 1978. Sachi studied Art and Anthropology at the Faculty of Humanities, the Art Department of Wako University in Japan. After the graduation She worked backstage in theater and performance. From 2004 she moved to the Netherlands, studied Fine Art at Gerriet Rietveld Academie and Sandberg Institution. She lives and works in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Sachi sculpts the here-and-now. She is inspired by the paradoxes and antagonisms between nature, humans and technology as well as how their relationships form spatial delimitations that shape public space. She researches and artistically translates our collective efforts to handle both the internal and external world, measuring, comparing, scaling, representing, designing and altering bodies, architectural spaces, and landscape.

Amsterdam-based interdisciplinary artist-duo Boogaerdt/VanderSchoot will research Butoh and Yokai in this residency for the creation of their new work. Tracing seemingly negative motifs such as trauma or sickness, they envisage a performance that responds to today's “sick” society, full of difficulties.
