Forming Hubs for Cultural Creation (Tokyo Artpoint Project)

Artpoint Meeting

  • Finished

Cultivating the “intervals” between disasters

Genre:
  • Art Project

Amidst the global climate crisis, we could be said to be living in the “intervals” between frequent natural disasters. In our daily lives we need to prepare for disasters that could occur at any time; and in the event of a disaster, to minimize the damage and have the strength to get back on our feet.
Perhaps one way to engage with disaster in our daily lives is to exchange words about local culture, to act together, and to think about past disasters and local events by way of artistic expression.
For this Artpoint Meeting, together with our guests we engage in in-depth discussion of this topic through a talk and film screening.
