This is a collaborative exhibition between contemporary literary authors and media artists that focuses on how pure literature and the visual and media arts interface. Works will visualize literary worlds that are usually left up to the reader's imagination.

The exhibition comprises three parts: listening to and looking at text, reproduction of literary landscapes and homage to classical works. There will be related events such as special talks and publications featuring new projects by the participating novelists and artists with the cooperation of Kodansha publication "Gunzou" and NHK Enterprises.

This is an attempt to explore and break ground in new domains and expressive possibilities through the coexistence and competing of literature and visual media.
