| Majima's main medium is video. However, he also uses photography, sculpture, and watercolor to reveal the gaps between language, meaning, and visuals in humorous and elegant ways. |
| His video works include:
short videos of jokes, and a long video work,"Japanese Modern Art / The Cheerful Country (1995)," which tells the story of the dawn of Japanese western-style art based on a detailed script in a disjointed movie style. He constructs fiction with reality which only exists in details. |
