A British/Japanese artist who creates machines, robotics, music and videos exploring issues surrounding technology and pop culture. A graduate of London’s Royal College of Art, Sputniko!’s graduation piece “Menstruation Machine—Takashi’s Take” (2010), a device simulating bleeding and pain to mimic that of menstruation in order to allow men to understand the experience, was the first of her projects that caused ripples in the contemporary art scene and was just months later exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo. Since then, Sputniko! has continued to produce playful cross-boundary work examining the technology of everyday life, and has presented her film and installation works internationally in museums such as New York MoMA and the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo. In 2016 she created her first permanent art pavilion at Teshima Island in Benesse’s Naoshima Artsite for the Setouchi Art Triennial.
