| The mask motif I have worked on regularly since I created it for LADY GAGA while I was a student at art university. |
| In this exhibition, we will be unveiling for the first time a new body of work that focuses solely on masks. |
| In addition to a total of 100 one-of-a-kind masks, all made by hand, you can also order jewelry and two-dimensional works with mask motifs. |

| The mask is a special motif for George Kojima. |
| A group of 100 works, created with great sensibility and freely using a variety of materials, blur the boundaries between inside and outside, between real and virtual images, and between subject and object. |
| It is a dangerous object that can cause the wearer to lose or even collapse their sense of self, and at the same time, its mystique attracts people. |
| The theme of the entire exhibition space is “The Senate and the Dream Residents.” As one of them, I will invite you to a world of fantasy. |
| Interior designer Kentaro Amano of SAVAC was in charge of the space design. |
| The phantom Senate was made to appear with symbolic light magic. |
