Yumemi Hiraki is a multidisciplinary artist currently based in nipaluna. Her practice delves into the intimate interactions between memory, nostalgia, cultural practice and an emotional responses to site. Viewing herself as a resident of cultural gaps, her works evokes a familiar yet foreign sense of longing, belonging and holding on, while hinting at life’s inevitable continuity and ephemerality. Her works lend themselves to being personal interventions of vulnerability, confrontation and reflection, that long to connect with a deeper sense of self.
