Inter-sphere, 境界域, is a domain between, and contiguous with, two  (seemingly) opposite propositions. 

 

We call it “Inter-sphere” for it can only be defined by means of delineation of its own contour in principle, using the affirmed, the negated, the interrogated and the exclaimed. 

We do not assume inter-sphere is non-existence or that which cannot stand with its genuine articulation, rather, it is a mirage that wakes you up in the middle of falling in a drowsy. 

 

Thus, every inter-sphere is expressed with two opposite words bridged with a dash. 

 

understanding-misunderstanding 

rational-schizophrenic 

reality-picture

true-false

subject-object

move-standstill 

space-duration 

flatland-volumeland

 

As you may have instantly noticed, the text you have for this exhibition is a composite of pedantic statements in Japanese and queer descriptions of some mental health things in English, which is sometimes interrupted with strikethroughs. 

You can fairly grasp what we are trying to achieve by using the tools below. The words beginning with “trans” always help us leap the imagined hemisphere to another interface:
