By putting a border line between life and death, we separate the world of death from our world of life, casting the dead away into the "world of oblivion".

"Triennale in the City" is a scheme that is of priority for the sponsoring local government. For many local governments, revitalization is an important mission for the local community, and, therefore, the attitude to achieve this mission through the cultural and/or artistic activities should not be denied.

Even Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci were entertainers. In that way, I am an entertainer and want to make art that is fun.

To think about "oblivion" is to think about "what art is".

Art is basically entertainment.

Of course, the process of curating is different from art making. Exhibition-making is a process that involves collaboration with various participating artists.

I planned the exhibition so that it becomes a story where the viewer travels through these islands [of ideas]. Whether the contents of each chapter came first or the artist came first in making the decision was different in each case.
