About · この展覧会について
Where waste
finds its echo.

EChOes of Waste is a Japan–Thailand sustainability art exhibition in which eight artists transform discarded materials into powerful works. Held at Siam Takashimaya, ICONSIAM, the exhibition invites visitors to look again at what has been thrown away — and ask what we truly value.

廃棄物を素材としたアートを通じて、国際文化交流とサステナビリティへの共感を広げる体験型文化企画。展示に加え、ワークショップ・トークセッションを組み合わせ、「見るだけでなく、体験を持ち帰る」場として設計されています。
