What does "Japan" mean to you? Discussions surrounding what "Japan" and "Japanese" should be often take place nowadays. As a part of Asia, and the world, "Japan" or "Japanese" cannot be simply defined by the nationality, language, geography, history, religion or any of those vague conceptions.
It is always important that all of us keep questioning what "Japan" means, and its possible answers to ourselves, thinking beyond stereotypes and generalization.
"Japan Collage 2008" is an annual exhibition organized by Gallery K, aiming to create an occasion for people to be engaged in thinking, feeling, and expressing "Japan".
Fourteen artists' works are collaged in the gallery space, revealing their own standpoints and complex nature of "Japaneseness".
