In the exhibition Floating World, the artist duo A.A.Murakami’s newly commissioned immersive work blends together technology and physical effects to create unique experiences that feel otherworldly. The two projects Beyond the Horizon and The Passage of Ra bring giant iridescent bubbles and fog rings to The Studio.
During the talk, find out more about how the creation of this exhibition fits into their ongoing exploration of research that the artist terms ‘ephemeral tech,’ their inspirations, and their views on how technology has blurred our perception of what is virtual and what is real.
Join Ikko Yokoyama, Lead Curator of Design and Architecture, and Sunny Cheung, Curator of Design and Architecture, in conversation with A.A.Murakami, for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at their new visionary installation at M+.
Admission to this exhibition is free. The opening talk will be conducted in English with simultaneous interpretation in Cantonese. Click on ‘Register’ to sign up for this free talk.
