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

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

"Art is the ability to turn one's gaze to the world of oblivion." This is the way in which I understand art at fundamental level.

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

Of course, I, like the sponsoring government, would like to have as many people as possible visit Yokohama Triennale. This is because I believe that art should not be monopolized by professionals and specialists.

I have always thought that it would be nice to not complete the exhibition in one place and close off the others as a result. Exhibitions should connect with various locations and promote exchange and interaction.
