Artists

Satoru Aoyama, Andrea Bowers & Suzanne Lacy, Melanie Bonajo, Masato Kobayashi, Muyun Li, Kao Okada, Sanghyun Park, Rintaro Unno
This project is an exhibition that considers various contemporary issues such as loneliness, the body and sexuality, the relationship between humans and nature, and collaboration and solidarity with others through the works of artists who deal with various issues in society. The exhibition also focuses on the existence of the viewer or "audience" and explores new possibilities for the interrelationship between the artist and the viewer and the viewing experience.

Artist and activist Suzanne Lacy has said that when she shows her work in museums, she imagines not only the people who come to see it but also those who cannot come to the museum due to financial or emotional constraints.

A work of art is not the work of the artist alone, and its meaning is continually changing according to the reactions of its viewers, who feel, interpret, and sometimes question various things when they see it. Therefore, it can be said that works of art are appreciated beyond their time and region, and acquire the freedom to be read in new ways.

This exhibition introduces the various perspectives presented by the artists and visualizes the opinions of the audience in the exhibition.
