Exhibition Outline

Today, we live in a vortex of infinite choices and overwhelming flows of information. In such an　environment, we find ourselves repeatedly asking: what should we believe, and how should we live?

Kisui-iki (brackish water),where freshwater and seawater meet, form a zone that is unstable yet rich in diversity. In an equally murky society where countless perspectives overlap and collide, what do we sense: anxiety, or freedom?

Together with seven artists, this exhibition creates a Kisui-iki: an in-between space where concepts and meanings intersect and fluctuate. As you drift through the exhibition, you will encounter different ways of seeing the world. At times, these perspectives may feel unsettling; at other times, they may resonate deeply. Through this experience, you can sense your own internal "density" and find the traction to move forward, forming a temporary personal map. Resisting the speed that demands hasty answers, and instead persisting in experimentation-- this act serves as the clue to honing the senses needed to swim freely through these uncertain times.
