Photo exhibition held for a limited time from Tuesday, July 16th to Sunday, July 21st.
At "THINK_30," photographs of "Hiroshima" taken by Shingo Wakagi and Taro Hirano as they walked through the city during their visit will be displayed. How will the familiar streetscapes of our everyday lives appear through the lenses of these two artists? This is a wonderful opportunity to re-examine the "city of Hiroshima." Please come with a fresh perspective, as if you've brought a new camera.
Additionally, a ZINE will be produced using the photographs taken by the two artists for this occasion. It will be sold in limited quantities on the day. We hope you look forward to it.
