At the exhibition, the venue will be transformed into an ocean and forest and the artworks created
in the workshops (using trash and other materials generated on campus) will be displayed. The
mother ocean accepts everything in circulation and nurtures life. However, garbage discarded by
humans stays in the ocean. Even at this very moment, garbage continues to flow into the ocean at
an alarming rate. The exhibition will communicate the current state of the ocean through
manufacturing, question the causes of climate change, and sound a warning bell for the future. In
a lush forest, there is a Mother Tree (an entity with mystical powers that supports the forest and
nurtures the trees around it), and the living, growing forest is conveyed through manufacturing,
calling for recovery from the critical state of climate change and transmitting actions to change the
future.
In addition, there will be a space at the exhibition site where visitors can leave comments about
their impressions of the works and their thoughts on the SDGs and climate change, and together
with the visitors, we will all think about tomorrow and the future of the earth.
