Needless to say, we in modern society are surrounded daily by countless things. These are things made by us and things that existed way before. We live our lives using, looking at and reacting to these things. This summer, Hara Museum ARC takes a look at materials and motifs, two “things” that give artworks their form and their meaning, respectively. With their superb sensibilities and inquiring minds, artists engage and interact with materials and motifs, to sublimate and transform them into artistic expressions.
