We want to quietly look back on what Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai truly hoped to convey.
A year has passed since Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai came to a close. Twenty facilities—including the Expo's restrooms—were shaped by young architects who confronted questions of environment, diversity, and the connection between all living things, giving form to their convictions. This exhibition captures, through photography, the messages embedded in those spaces. For those who visited the Expo, it offers a chance to revisit that feeling; for those who could not, it delivers a message for the future through large-format prints, captured at 100 megapixels. We envision a world in 2050 where our children live in a place where life itself shines.
Alongside the photography, throughout the exhibition period the young architects who actually designed these facilities will visit the venue on a rotating, day-by-day basis to hold "Children's SDGs Workshops" and "Talk Shows," offering visitors a chance to experience the themes of the Expo firsthand. In addition, Yuki Ishii will personally lead gallery tours for children, sharing perspectives on environmental issues—drawing on his role as a Ministry of the Environment-registered environmental counselor—through the photographs on display.
