Futoshi Miyagi Read Bio Collapse
Futoshi Miyagi is an Okinawan artist and writer. He works in various mediums, such as photography, objects, video, and text, to construct narratives on the subjects of sexual minorities and untold stories in history, often in relation to Okinawa. Throughout his practice, Miyagi has used his literary sensibilities in an attempt to draw parallels between facts and his own memories and imagination. While the emotions that are unearthed as a result at times fluctuate and are accompanied by pain and conflict, the artist’s intention lies not in the restoration of idealized memories, but rather, the pursuit of his own truth.
