The exhibition title 'Synesthesia' refers to the phenomenon of synesthesia, but Mr. Okunaka has uniquely interpreted this concept and incorporated it into his works. He believes that sensing can connect nature, society, and people, and his works have transformed from traditional forms to more organic shapes. This exhibition features a specially created balloon-like installation with a maximum diameter of 12 meters. The installation fills the entire exhibition room and changes colors. Inside the installation, there is a large water pillow. By mediating 'formless' elements such as air, water, and light, it evokes and resonates with people's senses. It is enjoyable to touch and lie down on. Please consider visiting!
