Yuko Takada Kellers udtryk trækker tråde tilbage til den japanske kunsthistorie, hvor hun de sidste 30 år har arbejdet med installationer udelukkende med papiret som hovedmateriale. I denne sammenhæng har hun udstillet i det meste af Europa udover i hendes hjemland, Japan.

I værkerne anvendes uendelige mængder af små, udskårne stykker kalkepapir, hvilket bl.a. opleves i det tredimensionelle værk "Prismatic" bestående af i alt 7.500 små pyramider.
Vægten lægges her bl.a. på skrøbeligheden og ikke mindst forgængeligheden i valget af materiale og udtryk, men også på form og rummelighed, hvor Yuko Takada Keller bruger papiret som grundmateriale, men ud fra vidt forskellige formsprog.
