Stom Sogo

Stom Sogo was a Japanese video artist and experimental filmmaker who created a sprawling, distinct body of work that revelled in being both overwhelmingly rebellious and personably raw.

Despite it approaching a decade since his untimely death in 2012, much of his life remains shrouded in mystery and his works relatively obscure. Nowadays, he appears to exist as a kind of digital ghost with low resolution copies of his art floating around corners of the internet, coveted by those it has touched who clamor for more information about the man who made them. Through old interviews with friends and archival gallery screening biographies, a portrait of his life and his work begins to emerge.
