Tokyo (1971). Artist, composer based in Düsseldorf Germany since 1994, Miki Yui´s work deals with the memory of lived events. Focusing in particular on images and sounds, it reveals the trace, or wake, that these leave behind as they fade, after having appeared (in the former case) or been produced (in the latter)
