Author's comment
Activities are suddenly set up in museums, parks, schools, etc. We brainstorm ideas with the people who gather there, and if we come up with something interesting, we improvise and give it shape.

Judge's review

Although there are art historical references, he questions the artist's subjectivity in a unique way and imbues his works with a social aspect. (Iida)
The way the general public is involved is unique. (Hasegawa)
