| book description |

A beautifully produced introduction to Akashi's multimedia meditations on precarity and history The first scholarly monograph on Los Angelesâ€“based Kelly Akashi (born 1983), Formations encompasses Akashi's wide-ranging multimedia practice over the past decade. Much like the artistâ€™s own work, the catalog cultivates relationships between objects and materials to investigate how they can actively convey their histories and potential for change. Featuring a faux-leather hardcover binding with a gold foil titling and paper changes throughout, the publication follows the artist from graduate school to more recent research into the inherited impact of Japanese Americansâ€™ incarceration during World War II. Akashiâ€™s works in glass, cast bronze, multipart installations and photographic contact prints are given further context through scholarly essays. Along with extensive plates and installation photography, the book includes a new photography project by Akashi, a record of her scavenging for history in the site of her familyâ€™s imprisonment in a WWII Japanese American incarceration camp.
