Since 2006, Tokyo Arts and Space (TOKAS) has been implementing the “Creator-in-Residence” residency program, which offers opportunities for artists active in various disciplines to stay and create works in Tokyo or at various overseas destinations.
In this exhibition, 13 artists who participated in our residency program present the art that emerged from ideas and insights deepened through their research.

The TOKAS Project is designed to foster international exchange and inspire reflection on diverse themes from multicultural perspectives. In its ninth edition, in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the exchange between TOKAS and Seoul, South Korea, the project welcomes five artists from Japan and South Korea, who reimagine reality through their own bodily experiences and who mainly have previously participated in the residency program— Eun Jae Pil, Kim Dohee, Koo Donghee, Mino Arata, and Park Minha. In this exhibition, the artists approach diverse subjects—such as history, life, humanity, physicality, and society—from the perspective of “reenactment.” Through their distinct artistic practices— including fiction, sculpture, digital media, and physical performance—they seek to re-establish “being” in this space and reexamine the nature of life today.
