Kiyomi Uozumi was born in Wakayama, Japan in 1981. In 2004 she graduated with a sculpture major from Kyoto University of Art and Design, Department of Arts and Crafts. Tetsuhiro Uozumi was born in 1980 in Aichi, Japan. In 2007 he completed a master’s degree in sculpture at Aichi Prefectural University of the Arts. They began collaborating in 2004 and have lived in Berlin since 2007. They have produced work on the theme of “collecting and recreating the subtle everyday occurrences around them” since they participated in a residency in Iceland in 2012. They present installations that bring forth unique individual perspectives on the world, by allowing visitors to freely combine the multiple stories crammed into the space.
