"We"

video installation (18 min loop, beamer, steel locker, lighting system, sound system in the locker)

You can enter the room which is a installation piece made by Yosuke Amemiya. The room has over 10 lockers (with many doors). There was a certain time – for a while - where a person can see the oval-shaped screen which is projected as a mirror by a beamer. During the mirror-video, an old person came out and walk around from one of the lockers. From another locker, a young woman tried to draw out a steel bench from a door from the locker; there was also a tot running in the space in the video, three bagmen just sitting down in front of their own door. As soon as the woman turned off the switch for the existing light on the screen, it simultaneously turned off the lighting in the physical space. After a man wielded a light with an electric wire, about 20 women went out from the locker room space through the entrance of one of the lockers, showing only their shadow outline. Bright again, the locker people open/close their property, a hand came out with a record player. Then you could listen to the sound of a music "Till We Meet Again".
