Deep forest beyond five senses is an interactive art project to allow communication between the audience and artist, and trigger new inspirations. Artists active in various genres will come together to revive the “sixth sense” by displaying works that stimulate the five human senses with visuals, sound, light, and scent with “forest” as the underlying theme. The main event halls are AXIS Gallery and AXIS Gallery Annex. Furthermore, the entire AXIS Gallery will become an art forest as various spaces including the shops and courtyard will have exhibits.
We invited more than 20 artists including Tomoko Konoike, Toshio Iwai, Babakayo, and Taku Furukawa.
