Gold Experience

A giant balloon trash bag. It transforms the installation site into a large-scale garbage dump.
By allowing visitors to enter and play inside, this attraction work makes them look like garbage.
Placed in the rich natural environment of Yanbaru and letting visitors experience and enjoy it as an activity, the work touches the distorted actions of humans, including art."

    PROFILE

    An artist collective formed in Tokyo in 2005 by Ryuta Ugi, Yasutaka Hayashi, Erii, Masataka Okada, Motomu Inaoka, and Toshinori Mizuno. Pursuing the realities of the times, they have produced a series of critical works that intervene in contemporary society with all their might. In addition to participating in exhibitions worldwide, they also develop various projects independently. They also actively curate exhibitions and events of various genres and other artists living in the same era, transforming, and expanding the ways of being artists and the situation of the "periphery." Their project-based works are in the collections of Japanese museums, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Centre Georges Pompidou, and they are currently working to open up a new era as a leading Asian collective. In 2022, a solo exhibition was held at the Mori Art Museum.
