Exhibition
A strange procession of figures preparing paintings for a great exhibition.
Exhibition turns the act of showing art into theatre. Japanese figures prepare for a large exhibition, carrying works toward their destination while the boundary between painting, frame, and character begins to collapse. Some images appear to step out of their frames; others trap their figures inside them. The result is an exhibition before the exhibition — a world where artworks are already alive before they reach the wall.
