Jukan Tateisi was born in Chicago in 1986. As a contemporary artist, he produces works that take as their theme the dissolution and synthesis of dichotomic borders such as virtual and real, and natural and artificial. His main works include Beach on Beach, which superimposes beach layers; To The Fog, in which he delivers a personal monologue directed to fog through a public broadcasting system; and In(to)stallation, which brings the space for viewing art into a forest. His activities extend to numerous other domains, such as music, film, performing arts, and even food products. He was selected for New Contemporaries 2021, a program of contemporary art awards in the United Kingdom, and received a Master of Arts degree from the Royal College of Art in London.
