Exhibition "pooploop"

Exhibition "pooploop"

September 27 (Fri), 2024 - February 16 (Sun), 2025

Our world is in constant circulation. Things change form and move continually, influencing each other in complex and diverse ways. In the wildness of nature, almost nothing endures in one state. There is neither waste nor excrement. Yet both have become serious problems in today's society. Culturally, waste and excrement are marginalized. They are regarded as things to be ignored.

This exhibition looks at our environment. It ranges from close surroundings, to outer space, focusing on all manner of "waste and excrement." We define the world's various circulations as a "pooploop." By forcing a confrontation with things we habitually avoid, we have discovered the pooploop's huge range and dimension, and not only as a social issue. Circulation is constant. It never stops. If you find a piece of something missing somewhere, it will mean a new loop has surely begun.

Exhibition Director: Taku Satoh, Shinichi Takemura
