From the chilly winds of winter, the fourth in this series of art exhibitions and live performances will be presented by Japanese local talents known as "Surreality in Reality". As an epilogue to the cyclical Four Seasons, they bring you "Colorless Spectrum" -- seemingly paradoxical, reminiscent of the ancient Japanese philosophy revealing that behind everything lies the primordial nothingness. Seeking the infinite possibilities of the color white, the key hue of the winter season, the only color composed of all colors, each artist presents their own interpretation of the Colorless Spectrum through various media. Like the blank map that inspires a journey of exploration, S.I.R. invites you to delve into a universe of white concealing a spectrum of unlimited potentiality. Now, as we are approaching the completion of one cycle, as all returns to where it originated, we have already begun another journey anew.

I look forward to see you at the show!
Peace.
