Comment from Subaru Kimura, the narrator of the Japanese audio guide
As a fan of street art, I am very excited about this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Numerous well-known artworks are finally landing in Japan!? And we can see them live!? I can't wait for it to start. The works on display this time are experiential art pieces that strongly embody antitheses or messages against society, capturing and holding the hearts of those who see them. I hope that all visitors will enjoy the works from various angles through this audio guide.
