Exhibition Theme

The theme of the exhibition reflects the personal and subjective nature of art: “What only I have seen—perspectives that can’t be generated by anyone else.” Fourteen artists will present works that derived from their individual backgrounds and experiences, emphasizing that even in a shared space, viewpoints can vary dramatically depending on one’s position.

Each attendee will contribute a new perspective the moment they engage with the artwork. As stated in the exhibition’s introduction, there are no absolute perspectives, and the addition of each visitor creates a new layer of interpretation, enriching the collective experience.

This approach fosters a dialogue between the observer and the work, inviting participants to reflect on their unique interpretations and complete the artwork’s narrative with their personal insights.
