After the reception of his self-published artist book ‘Back Yard’ in 2011 he began to push the boundaries in his work and reach. Using various techniques in his photographic work such as high temperature development, duplication and retouching Yokota often plays with accidental image effects. His most recent book release ‘Vertigo’, alike Alfred Hitchcock’s film expresses suspense and perspective. Pulling on inspiration from film and the visual arts the work in Vertigo allows for a new angle and objective with considered editing that plays on sequence and narrative.
