Résumé:
Tabaimo’s exhibition shows a theme informed by a personal sense of generations, a personal world. Her early work juxtaposed common images of contemporary life. In more recent years her work has become more introverted, as she adopted a motif that included fingers, hair and internal organs. The world around her is symbolized in the shape of a housing complex. In rooms in the exact same floor plans different lives unfold. Tabaimo cuts open a DANMEN (cross-section) of this housing complex and shows the various lives in a harmonious union of past and present.
