MusuHi "Echoes in Knots" MuSuHi is an art collective that uses the ancient Japanese technique of
"musubi" (knotting) with hemp - a traditional plant and material native to Japan - to connect and revive the frayed edges of contemporary society. The concept of "musubi" is deeply rooted in Japanese mythology, symbolizing the power of rebirth and the energy of new beginnings. In Shinto shrines and other sacred places in Japan, ropes and knots made from hemp serve as "kekkai", boundaries that divide the sacred and secular realms. These boundaries, connecting the two worlds, are a universal element in Japanese life. As an island nation at the far eastern edge of the Eurasian continent, Japan has constantly experienced the flow and flux of cultural exchange. Through the ages, Japan has "tied" and bonded external, foreign values to its own, integrating the 'other' while maintaining and evolving a unique cultural identity. This exhibition by MuSHi explores the Japanese language, the foundation of these concepts. In Japanese, "kotodama" (or word spirits) are created from prioritizing the sound of words over their meaning, where each vowel-based sound resonates and harmonizes with others, These ancient sound combinations transcend time, resonating through people's cells with a timeless energy: Through a contemporary interpretation of this ancient knotting technique, we hope visitors will perceive the echoes of time, from invisible but palpable frequencies, receiving a universal energy that promotes harmony rather than conflict. |

"OPEN TO ATLAS" : Maiko Yoshizawa Art Exhibition The title of this exhibition is "Open to Atlas." The art piece symbolizes Atlas, the god from Greek mythology. It also refers to organs, maps atlas), and the ground. This idea was inspired by Oriental medicine.
In Oriental medicine, there is a concept of improving the circulation of both the mind and the body, in turn, also enhancing one's well-being. This idea is reflected in my art piece, the Atlas. She believe our minds need circulation, and so does society. This work is "Nihonga," a traditional art form Japan, named in contrast to Western art over a hundred years ago during the Meiji period. That emerged over a hundred years ago, during the Meiji period. Nihonga is drawn with mineral pigments, which are made from crushed rocks and soil. For this art piece, She used soil from various countries such as America, Morocco, Russia, Italy, China, England, Greece, and near her home, and while doing so, She was reminded of how the earth used to be one big continent. |
