For this exhibition, she will exhibit the recording video work attempts to reproduce with her family, about auditory hallucinations that one of her family has, the video work for the medical records of a mental hospital, and the installation that includes archival material and other drawing.

In recent years, she selected as subjects of historical facts such as leprosy and Great Kanto Earthquake, with the theme of scrapbook by anonymity. But this time, iiyama represents the intersection of the world she looks herself and the documentary she pumps up, researching a variety of cases and the surrounding history of psychosis, based on personal experience. Suddenly we might be noticed that there is not a dramatic difference between our daily and daily of people with such problems, from the beginning.
