Words such as “slow food”, “slow life” and “LOHAS” allow us to revalue the importance of slowness in our fast-paced lives. By depending on a highly digital and information-based society, we crave high-efficiency and convenience and it is only when we are exhausted when we turn again for slowness.
This exhibition features works by Mima Akasaki, Chie Matsui and Yutaka Moriguchi, whose works play with the concept of time in a slower and denser manner.
*Exhibiting at Exhibition Rooms 1 & 2

Performance with Chie Matsui and Misako Yabuuchi: January 19th (Sat) 14:00-15:00
