"I've been experimenting and preparing for this exhibition for the past few years.
I've had many exhibitions in the past, but this one will be my biggest yet and completely different to anything I've had before.
I am confident that you will experience a world like utopia.
This time, we will be participating as a team called EiM. Only at TOKYO NODE,
This is an exhibition that could never be realized anywhere else, so please be sure to come and see it."

Hiroaki Hiroaki Miyata

Data Scientist and Professor at Keio University

He uses data science and other sciences to challenge social change and conducts research activities with a focus on contributing to improving reality. Since 2022, he has also been working as the executive director of the creative team EiM, which he formed with Mika Ninagawa, Enzo, and others.

“We named our exhibition at TOKYO NODE ‘Eternity in a Moment,’ paying homage to the aesthetic sense that finds universal beauty in things that change in our everyday life and moments. As we create experiences together with everyone, we hope that this exhibition will become a new type of venue that connects us to the future.”

architect

“This time, I was in charge of the final chapter of the exhibition that tells the story of Mr. Ninagawa.We created a space that breathes life into the story as the final chapter of Mr. Ninagawa's work of light. I would be happy if you could feel a bright future through the exhibition.”

Exhibition Advisor

Mami KATAOKA

Director of Mori Art Museum

“Mika Ninagawa’s flowers are always extremely strong and dazzling. What is it that drives her? What kind of darkness did she pass through to reach that dazzling and glamorous world? Does her work shine the way it does because she accepts all the daily conflicts, pandemics, and wars that everyone faces, and still tries to live ‘here and now’? In this exhibition, you’ll be able to see the roots of these intensely turbulent emotions.”
