About
Why this artist matters now
Aiko Tanaka makes photographs and video works that treat the internet image archive as both subject and raw material, tracing how images degrade, multiply, and acquire false authority through networked repetition. Based between Tokyo and Los Angeles, her practice interrogates the lifecycle and genealogy of digital images.
