Highlights of the Exhibition

1. All new and newly photographed: A video
installation composed of real subjects
without using computer graphics.
The created videos project fantastic beauty andcapture reality without the use of CG; they
sublimate the transitory beauty of everyday life
into an eternal presence.

2. Different team members collaborate for eachwork in a collection of 14, each one of which
could serve as the “face” of the exhibition.
Co-created with masters of various fields such asarchitecture, music, and stage art, each of the 14 works could suffice as the main work in a solo
exhibition but are interconnected to create a single experience.

3. An art experience that can be seen only at TOKYO NODE, which offers a view of Tokyo from
200 meters above ground and is not accessible for tours.
Each exhibition is created to suit the vast gallery space of TOKYO NODE for an experience unlike
anywhere else. Additionally, by incorporating outside light into some of the works, the design enables
you to enjoy different imagery each time you visit.

Exhibition Overview / Introduction of Works(Excerpt from exhibition statement)

By changing your perspective just slightly, you can see completely different kinds of beauty andemotion, even in ordinary scenes from everyday life. The common factor in the images that form
the core of this exhibition is that even though they present beautiful, dreamlike views, they are all
actual images, and most of them have been photographed at ordinary locations as an extension ofpeople’s daily lives. We are hoping that this exhibition will stimulate viewers’ minds and allow themto experience the opportunity for change. (EiM)
Beginning this exhibition in the darkness puts the vivid,
richly colored images that Mika Ninagawa is known forin an entirely different context. And the view of Tokyo
from TOKYO NODE, 200 meters above the ground, aswell as the natural light incorporated into theexpression of the works, can be viewed only here, andnowhere else.

The exhibition is divided into 14 separate experiences, several of which are introduced below.
Flashing Before Our Eyes
A large-scale video experience that uses the entire
domed ceiling, which reaches a maximum height of 15
meters. The images include paired concepts—such as
movement and stillness, life and death, and tension
and relaxation—that appear like vivid memories, sinking
into unconsciousness, and then gradually regaining
consciousness and reawakening after a long time.
Intersecting Future
The true essence of Mika Ninagawa, who has the heart of a movie director. The work fills theviewer’s field of view—up, down, left, and right. The scenery is filled with flowers that make it look likeparadise. Harnessing movie set technology, this is an impressive spatial experiential exhibit thatmakes the most of the space.
Seasons: Flight of Butterflies Experience images of the four seasons while being guided bybutterflies. The projected flowers have a beauty that makes them appear almost artificial, but they
are real, not produced by computer graphics. Viewers moving around the six layers of screens aretransformed into a part of the work.

Comments from the Exhibition Advisor

Mami Kataoka: Director of the Mori Art Museum“Mika Ninagawa’s flowers are always extremely strong and dazzling. What is it that drives her? Whatkind of darkness did she pass through to reach that dazzling and glamorous world? Does her work
shine the way it does because she accepts all the daily conflicts, pandemics, and wars that everyone
faces, and still tries to live ‘here and now’? In this exhibition, you’ll be able to see the roots of these
intensely turbulent emotions.”
