Chim↑Pom
The new exhibition at The Container, entitled, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, with childish-charm, naivety and subversive humor, illustrates through an installation with a new video piece, Kiss, as its focal point, these feelings of loneliness, fragility and angst. The video depicts two light bulbs, decorated with cartoonish faces of a man and a woman swinging towards each other. The collision brings about darkness and broken glass. The installation, which consists also of broken light bulbs and a photograph entitled, King & Queen, depicting Ellie, a member of the collective, in a sexually-charged pose kissing a nearly life-size statute of a crucified Jesus, help to contextualize the video.

The exhibition at The Container is synchronized with an additional exhibition of Chim↑Pom at Mujin-To Production entitled "Survival Dance". The exhibition at Mujin-To Production will run between September 24th and October 15th, with an opening reception on September 24th, 18:00-20:00.
