目[mé] is a contemporary art group centering on the artist Haruka Kojin, director Kenji Minamikawa, and installer Hirofumi Masui. With an emphasis on situations and flow lines, including in terms of exhibition spaces and viewers, its work attempts to bring the uncertain world closer to our sense of reality. For Reborn-Art Festival 2022, 目[mé] exhibits an updated version of the work it presented at the festival in 2017, which focuses on tension between gazes. The viewer looks out a window from inside a bus, and is shown matter-of-factly a view of the landscape that has drastically changed due to the development of the park in the Ishinomaki Minamihama area.
