Mari Katayama emphasizes that her prosthetic leg, while integral to her life and daily navigation, is not viewed as an art object, but as part of her being.
Her artwork, through self-portraits and installations, aims to foster dialogue about societal norms related to physicality, beauty, and the natural vs. artificial.
In her life as both an artist and a mother, Katayama reflects on themes of transformation, identity, and the beauty found in the intersection of art and mathematics.
Through the 'High Heel Project,' Katayama collaborates with Sergio Rossi to create prosthetic legs that enhance her ability to perform, merging function with a striking aesthetic.
