Tomoko Takahashiâ--s sculptural installations strike a delicate balance between chaos and order. She uses an array of found objects and discarded materials, subjecting them to her own complex set of organizing principles. Takahashi spends weeks on site during the making of these installations, and the finished works are often punctuated with references to the time and labour involved. This emphasis on the construction processes that are usually hidden or kept out of the public eye is central to Takahashiâ--s work.
For her first major exhibition in the United Kingdom since she was nominated for the Turner Prize in 2000, Takahashi has been commissioned by the Serpentine to make a new work that comprises a series of distinct environments throughout the Gallery. Incorporating a variety of surprising materials, including moving and sound elements, Takahashiâ--s installation will explore her ongoing interest in ordering systems and structures, focusing in particular on her fascination with games and their rules. Toys and games will feature throughout the installation, along with thousands of objects and domestic machines that Takahashi has collected.
Closing event
Takahashiâ--s installation for the Serpentine will only exist for the duration of the exhibition. She will dismantle it during an event held at the Gallery on 10 April from 10am - 6pm and members of the public will be invited to take away parts of the work.

Sweatshop
Making Myths and Visual Noise
Tuesday 8 March - 6.30 â-- 8.30pm
The Sackler Centre of Arts Education at the Serpentine Gallery - Admission Free
Convened by Lisa Le Feuvre and Edgar Schmitz, Sweatshops are a series of events that work as a factory for ideas and debate. These informal discussions invite writers, artists, curators and theorists to explore their current research interests.
Tomoko Takahashi creates works of art from chaos, inviting viewers to unravel the internal logic of her works. This Sweatshop considers idiosyncratic ordering systems as myth-making structures, examining the roles played by meaning and belief in making sense of the world.
Examples will be drawn from artists as diverse as Joseph Beuys and Sarah Sze, as well as from contemporary science, music and information technologies.
This Sweatshop will take place during the Tomoko Takahashi Education Private View.
Events
The Leafcutter John Orchestra - Friday 18 March - 7.30pm
Using objects in the Tomoko Takahashi exhibition as sound sources, a group of musicians including Sebastian Rochford of Polar Bear, Melissa Agate aka sanso-xtro, and Sebastian Lowsley-Williams will create a spontaneous piece of music. Leafcutter John, who will process the work live in the Gallery, has released three albums on Planet Mu records; the most recent, The Housebound Spirit, received an honorary mention at the Ars Electronic Awards 2004, and was named by The Wire magazine as one of the top 50 records of 2003.
Join Tomoko Takahashi and artist Simon Faithfull in front of the Serpentine for a game of ultraviolet tag â-- played under UV lights and relayed live onto a large-scale projection screen on the Galleryâ--s lawn. Each of the players will wear a white hat so that, when dusk falls, they will appear on the screen as white spots, creating random patterns as they move. This is the second time Takahashi and Faithfull have collaborated to produce an outdoor game â-- the first was in Clissold Park in 2000.
