Business Overview
This project was designed and implemented as a venue for experimental presentations by young artists mainly based in Tokyo. By aiming for an exhibition that combines various genres such as music, performance, film, and fortune-telling, we tried to present the diversity of contemporary art and create a place of free and experimental expression as much as possible without being bound by a frame. The participating artists were Ayako Mino, who creates visual works, installations, and exhibition plans; Ayaka Toyoshima, who presents performances combining ikebana and physical expression; Rika Nakajima, who actively presents her works while managing an alternative space; Kaori Melan, who creates and presents works based on the movement of stars; Beatrice Forster, who creates visual and sound works using images such as Dracula and Ghost; and Shiori Watanabe, who is also the manager of Studio Ghost, an exhibition venue, and has created works that reduce natural objects to artificial cycles, as well as plans and exhibitions at Noh theaters.
