This event will feature a variety of artworks, including paintings, sculptures, photography, installations, etc. Visitors will be able to experience a new world of art as they explore different areas and regions.

Kei Naito
Artist
He is a car mechanic and also creates artworks. He is the creator of #weeeels.
His passion for cars is known both in Japan and overseas, and he was featured in Vol. 2 of TYPE 7, the official lifestyle magazine for PORSCHE. Due to the environment in which he grew up, his works are themed around cars, and one of his representative series is TOKYO 911 TALES. The TOKYO 911 TALES series is a series of works set in Tokyo, where Naito Kei was born and raised, that capture the moment when people, cars, and the city come together.
"Tokyo is a very large city, and it is a place where many people have come together. The cars and people passing by in the works are all captured in a single moment, but there are countless stories within them, and these stories are both heartbreaking and precious, and this was the theme behind the creation of these works.
When I walk the streets of Tokyo, I sometimes feel nostalgic and strange. In these scenes, there are always cars and people passing by, and in this series there are 9/11 stories.
