We are thrilled to unveil our inaugural exhibition, FORBIDDEN FRUIT, opening on August 29, 2025. The exhibition is set within the unique living space of a “houseboat” and takes the biblical symbol of the “forbidden fruit” as its starting point. It examines the latent thirst for power behind humanity’s pursuit of knowledge—an impulse to transcend the divine, and to control, judge, and define the world. Also explored is how this “divine illusion” of knowledge, once it permeates daily life, emerges as an invisible mechanism that subtly reshapes desire, value systems, and modes of action.
