Snobbism means that often through vulgar ostentation, to be proud and insolent with one’s inferiors. We need to reconsider what exactly is our original “true self” in the time when it is possible to form a different identity to our original ones through changes of the environment and the sense of the era.

Akihiro Kuroda is an art director who produces a conceptual installation that was created in his own perspective. A movie director Jun Fujiwara produces various video expressions with some musicians. Expect how they interpret, express the theme on their different expression styles.

As a pre event, the performance by live streaming will be held in February 6th, also the live performance will be presented by four artists who provided their music to the video works, in the exhibition first day as a Opening event.
