Hicosaka Toshiaki is an artist who focuses on creating ways to share a space and time with people or objects. By collaborating with others and gradually building \u201cplaces,\u201d he attempts to carefully ascertain the existence of things and people decisively different from himself.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The process of conceiving this exhibition led Hicosaka to the sand that lies under our feet. During the initial preparation, he would go on walks with his collaborators (who he calls his \u201ccompanions\u201d), touch, pick up, and examine the sand, and then bring back various sensations and images. Sand is an everyday substance but also something both literally and figuratively shifting and difficult to grasp. The exhibition has amassed countless numbers of little \u201csand stories\u201d dealing with this elusive substance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The exhibition gallery features sandboxes for visitors to touch and examine sand with their own hands, and even walk on it. Other exhibits include videos and small works about sand, opening up the gallery as a place for people to gather.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Each visitor to the exhibition will surely take home their own sand story.<\/p>\n

The Triangle<\/strong><\/big>
\nThe Triangle is a space newly created for the reopening of the Kyoto City KYOCERA Museum of Art. It aims to nurture emerging artists, especially those associated with Kyoto, and to provide opportunities for museum visitors to experience contemporary art. In order to connect the artist, museum, and viewer in a triangle and deepen those connections, the space hosts an eponymous series of special exhibitions and presents new artistic expressions from Kyoto.<\/p>\n
\nGraphic Design<\/strong><\/big>
\nThe Triangle\u2019s graphic design in 2022 is by Nishimura Yuichi (rimishuna). As this series of exhibitions that supports emerging artists with connections to Kyoto enters its third year, the museum searched for a fresh style by a designer similarly with links to the city where it is located. In Nishimura\u2019s design, text is laid over a triangle of rough, hand-drawn lines, forming an image of the works in the exhibition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15712,"parent":0,"template":"","exhibition_cat":[],"class_list":["post-15617","exhibition","type-exhibition","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","en-US"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition\/15617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibition"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition\/15617\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"exhibition_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kyotocity-kyocera.museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibition_cat?post=15617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
