About Workshop *The workshop has ended.

Windows often represent the contrast between inner space and outside scenery in literary or artistic works, and are also a way to express the dialogue between the world inside the heart and reality outside. More than physical boundaries, windows are rendered as portals to the psychic dimension and give artworks deeper meaning. For this exhibition , we will draw windows connecting the inside of a room with the outside. These can be familiar windows in a room that is part of everyday life, or an imagined window. Draw a window that is a reflection of yourself.

How to 

The completed pictures will be exhibited in the gallery inside Harada Iku’s virtual world inner space. Enjoy this visual and physical experience separate from the real world.
Anyone can participate until Sunday, July 28. Those who cannot attend the exhibition can send their images digitally. Please refer to the details below regarding how to participate.

Since around 2008, HARADA has built a virtual utopia on his computer, and paints scenery from the simulated experience he sees in this world. His fusion of reality and the virtual world invites the audience into new experiences. Major exhibitions include MOT Annual 2023: Synergies, or between creation and generation (Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo, 2023), The Museum in the Multi-layered World (ICC, Tokyo, 2021), and the public production of Another World Map of 10th Year (Fuchu Art Museum, Tokyo, 2019).
