This exhibition offers the first comprehensive overview of Konoike's current and past work. Here, Konoike presents the internal world of human beings as a planet, the Earth. Employing most of her old and new works, Konoike will construct the internal world of the earth in the gallery space in which every one of us will become "inter travelers" on a journey to the center of the earth, experiencing the grand mythologies created by the artist.
Pre-Event "The birth of the mythological tales"
In this event held before the exhibition, the artist will talk about her work and what she wants to express. There will also be a screening of the footage of the artist at work for this exhibition.
