Artist:
MIHOKANNO (Yosuke Bandai / Masaya Chiba / COBRA / Saeka Enokura / Daisuke Fukunaga / Soshiro Matsubara / Aya Ohki / Shuji Yamamoto / Ryohei Seita [designer])

MIHOKANNO: A natural intersection of individual purposes. MIHOKANNO is an artist collective that is made up of eight artists and one designer. Tokyo Wonder Site has previously introduced the works of Soshiro Matsubara, Saeka Enokura, Masaya Chiba and Cobra of MIHOKANNO, in the "Zone", "Index #2", "Ritual" and "O Collection" exhibitions respectively. While each member has been in the spotlight for his/her novel style of expression, it was their eagerness to explore not entirely visible horizons that drew them together quite naturally to form MIHOKANNO as a body that reflects in a way cross sections of one person's character. In their roles as artists, the members have been casually discussing topics that are normally too hot and fishy to handle, and their collective work marks an attempt to smoke out the mixture of comprehension and miscomprehension involved in this dialogue.

WONDER SEEDS is a public subscription exhibition that was installed in Tokyo Wonder Site as a stage for young artists to present their works to a large number of art fans. In this program designed to support young artists following the concept of "buy = support", selected entries of small works (paintings, prints, illustrations, photographs, etc.) from all across Japan are displayed and offered for sale. This year, the works of 108 artists chosen from 1053 entries will be exhibited at TWS Shibuya, where visitors can purchase the works they like. Next to the support of young artists, another idea behind WONDER SEEDS is the fostering of young art fans, and the animation of the general public to buy art.
