Exhibition:
Creating expression from records

Genre:
  • Art Project ,
  • Exhibition / Screening

In the workshop “Creating expression from records” held in summer 2022, participants started by gathering records and making their own records based on their personal interests; they have since practiced creative expression designed to make records and research accessible, all the while sharing processes and dialogue with each other.
This exhibition will delve into the themes that the participants have been working on since the workshop. It will explore and present the current forms of expression of the themes each participant has worked on since the workshop, and will consist of works and archival materials created based on subsequent research.
War, disaster, the natural environment, community voices, one’s own memories: participants had a variety of real-life themes, but when they put the themes together and compared them, they found similar issues, or conversely similar themes but considerably different details.
This is a project that each participant will (perhaps) tackle long term as their life’s work.
We have a feeling that stopping at each turning point or milestone, giving shape to and presenting works and sharing them with diverse people will lead to even more productive and satisfying activities for all involved.
Please come enjoy the current guise of this unique project.

*This event will be run with measures in place to prevent the transmission of coronavirus (COVID-19).
