Business Overview
In this project, a solo exhibition of Dutch artist Vincent Leitas was held. Through the metaphor of a cave and the representation of shadows, he asked about the diversity of identities and relationships. In the exhibition, he constructed a cavernous space and presented a kinetic light installation. Furthermore, during the exhibition, a telematic performance combining digital and physical was held, and dancers Daisuke Omiya and Amantina Jean were invited to connect the venues in Japan and the Netherlands via real time. A talk event was also held, and artist Tsubasa Kato appeared as a guest.
