Yoshi SodeokaJP/US
Yoshi Sodeoka is an artist working across video, print, and digital media, including immersive video installation. His practice explores perception, abstraction, and systems logic, drawing from experimental music culture and the visual language of mathematics and digital technology.
Using generative processes and layered time-based compositions, Sodeoka creates visual experiences that move between intensity and calm, chaos and order. His work often incorporates diagrammatic overlays such as lines, vectors, and symbolic forms, suggesting how machines attempt to read reality while allowing space for ambiguity and contradiction.
His projects span fine art, editorial, and music contexts. He has collaborated with musicians including Metallica, Psychic TV, Tame Impala, Oneohtrix Point Never, Beck, and Max Cooper, and his illustrations have appeared in publications such as The New York Times, Wired, The Atlantic, and MIT Technology Review. He has also been commissioned by brands including Apple, Samsung, Adidas, and Nike.
Sodeoka’s work has been exhibited internationally at institutions including the Centre Pompidou, Tate Britain, the Museum of the Moving Image, and Deitch Projects, and is held in the permanent collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, SFMOMA, and MoMI.
Originally from Yokohama, Japan, he has been based in New York since the 1990s.
