Immersive art exhibitions in Japan

Overview

Japan is hosting various immersive and experiential art exhibitions focused on dark or unsettling themes.

In Osaka, the Namba Parks Museum will host ‘Jigoku ni Ochiru Ten’ (Falling into Hell) from late November to late December. Supervised by Masahiko Tamura, the exhibition uses digital archive technology and animation to explore Japanese concepts of the afterlife, including the ‘Eight Great Hells’ and the judgment of the ten kings.

In Tokyo, Tokyo Dome City Gallery AaMo will host ‘Re: Horror ni Fureru Ten – The World of Horror Film Art’ from mid-September to early November. This exhibition focuses on the craftsmanship of horror film production, featuring recreated sets from the late 1970s and 1980s that allow visitors to touch and interact with props used to simulate materials like concrete and iron.
