SIDE CORE

Featuring Takasu Sakie, Matsushita Tohru, and Nishihiro Taishi, SIDE CORE launched in 2012. Harimoto Kazunori also participates in the collective as a video director. SIDE CORE create works based on the question of how an individual can go about sending messages in the city and public space, by referencing the ideas and history behind street culture. They sometimes collaborate with artists working in other genres to create a variety of works in the blind spots and interstices of the city. Recent major exhibitions include “Living road, Living space” (21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, 2025), “SIDE CORE｜Concrete Planet” (WATARI-UM, The Watari Museum of Contemporary Art and outdoor, Tokyo, 2024), “Hyakunengo Art Festival” (Chiba, 2024), “8th Yokohama Triennale “Wild Grass: Our Lives”” (Kanagawa, 2024).Last Updated: 2025.11
