introducing works from Tanker Project Prologue: Road to documenta fifteen exhibition held at BankART KAIKO in Yokohama, November 2021.

As an artist, Takashi Kuribayashi exhibited his new work GENKI-RO (meaning Energy Plant in Japanese, rhyming with GENSHI-RO, meaning Nuclear Reactor) this year, in the 10th year since Fukushima nuclear disaster. As a photographer, Rai Shizuno is travelling all over the world working on Play with the Earth, a film weaving images of his experience and memory. The artist and the photographer also work together in their collaborative projects with their teammates. Takashi Kuribayashi will be participating an international art event in 2022 as an artist, but for this time, he will be also bringing Rai Shizuno’s Cinema Caravan as his collaborative work. What is underneath their activities and collaborations? The two, still traveling back and forth to visit the Fukushima have many thoughts influenced by their visits.

「地球と遊ぶ」をコンセプトに、五感で体感できる移動映画館プロジェクト。海辺、田んぼ、丘の上、都会のど真ん中、時代を作ってきた廃墟など、世界の様々な場所で実施する。スクリーンを拡げ、土地の食を楽しむ空間は、それぞれの地元の方々と共に作る。生きる知恵や工夫を相互に教え、学びながら様々な文化を体験するプロジェクト。
町と町、人と人とを繋げ、情報交換する、liveな動く媒体を目指している。いずれ点と点が繋がり縁となるように
