The prefix “re” at the beginning of English words creates many words that carry the meaning of “again,” “back,” “repeat,” etc. Using various words prefixed by the aforesaid “re” as keywords, this exhibition communicates a selection of ideas about “expressions of living” as contemplated with participants in the workshop series “Drawing a Future Topographical Map of Tama Together –re.* Expressions of living” over the past six months, and reflects on days past, and days to continue.
In addition to displays of different expressions by workshop participants, the venue will also feature a “workspace” where visitors can meditate on the theme while they use their hands to carve, print, cut and paste etc. Please come along to the venue, think about the theme, and have a go at some handiwork. And if you feel like it, why not talk to project members at the venue about days to come?

How can we connect events that seem distant and unrelated to us with the place in which we live and our daily lives? In this era of rapid change and flux, it is important to take back our time and try to resist the current in our own small way. We will think more about the current situation and society itself, and search for ways to live and resist, in other words, “expressions of living,” using the three English words with “re” at the beginning: “retrace,” “resist,” and “record. This is a series of six-month workshops to explore the expression of living with the participants and guests with various backgrounds, using the three English words with “re” in the beginning as keywords.
