I approached the exhibition space as an extension of my own room, creating a space where drawings and clothing coexist, reflecting on my personal closet, my thoughts and feelings about dressing, my self-image, and memories from everyday life.
I also made an inedible birthday cake with my friends.
This project is a collaborative project by Futaba Sugiyama and Moene Kamiya.
It began with a desire to send fragments of our world into the hands of others, and to create connections with worlds beyond what we could imagine for ourselves—with the lives and experiences of people we might otherwise never encounter.
We created a personal publication and sent it to several people, together with a postcard. We asked each recipient to pass the book on to someone else after reading it. In return, we received postcards from the people who received the books, each carrying a message from them.
As the final step of the project, we created a book documenting our creative process as a whole, as well as the forms of communication and the paths of connection that emerged through the project. We also held an exhibition to present the project and its traces.
