Project Objectives
Orientalism begins with the presumption of a Western center, rendering Eastern culture as an object. This project seeks to dislocate and transcend that structure, generating Japanese culture as true global content—not something exotic, but something that Western audiences can also internalize as their own cultural framework, developing creators and the talents to support them in parallel. Our early-stage strategy focuses on selecting an audience segment capable of decoding Japan through the semiotic grammar of Western contemporary art, and on constructing deliberate networks that enable sustained interpretation and exchange.
Project Approach
This project reconstructs the authentic full tea ceremony (Chaji) as a linguistic structure of contemporary art, operating it as a platform capable of structurally and comprehensively presenting Japanese cultural codes—clothing, food, and shelter. It seeks to generate an interpretive framework for Japanese culture as a true global content beyond Orientalism, not as exoticized spectacle, but as cognitive infrastructure.
Through the recursive activation of artist selection and relational infrastructure essential for global career formation, we cultivate creators who are not replaceable, but necessary—Japanese creators as irreplaceable cultural agents.
"KAISEKI" here is a triadic concept:
— Kaiseki/ 懐石: kaiseki cuisine in the tea ceremony
— Kaiseki/ 解析: analytics of decoding global markets
— Kaiseki/ 会席: seated gathering of those who will design the future together
