Sampling history and other phenomenon, Tsuyoshi Hisakado manipulates sound, light and other objects to theatrically create installation works, which allows the audiences to reunite with memories or stories. Hisakado completed an MFA at the department of Sculpture of Kyoto City University of Arts in 2007.
