Project

Dream Island

Summary

Dream Island is an art project that treats the various examples of reclaimed land that dot Tokyo Bay as both industrial and political “grounds” and the grounds for certain ideologies. It will unfold across three programs (magazine publications, an outdoor exhibition experienced like a guided tour, and an exhibition at a planetarium) as well as talks and symposiums at CCBT with experts. The project will explore how land is made in the Web 3.0 era in partnership with a range of contributors, including artists, poets, novelists, musicians, researchers, and members of the public.

CCBT Art Incubation Program

One of CCBT’s core programs, the Art Incubation Program provides opportunities for creative talent to undertake new projects and makes those processes accessible to the public, facilitating forms of artistic expression, exploration, and action that change our city for the better. Selected through an open call, five artist fellows will act as CCBT partners, developing their projects, making the creative process public, exhibiting the results, and holding workshops and talks.
