An artistic research on exoticization and fetishization of East- Asian, in particular Japanese, perceived bodies in western countries. The representation of bodies, codes of movements and the use of voice in Japanese pop culture and J-pop scene formed one of the bases of the research work. An attempt to find a way of a (deconstructed) representation.
