A 5-years-in-the-making show, closing today

"Oku Project Exhibition 2026 Oku" has been running at Hibiya OKUROJI since September 4, and today, September 13, is its final day, with hours 13:00 to 20:00.

The show is the first in five years from Oku Project, a unit of three creators working across graphic design, interior design, contemporary art, and theater — disciplines that rarely combine in a single gallery show.

What the exhibition explores

Built around the keywords "eye," "distance," and "absence," the exhibition uses collaborative works between the three creators to express layered, multi-perspective depth ("oku," meaning something like "interior depth") within the exhibition space itself.

What To Know

A rare, five-years-in-the-making show from a genuinely cross-disciplinary creative unit gives art-curious readers a reason to explore contemporary Japanese art beyond the more heavily trafficked museum circuit, with real urgency since today is the last chance to see it.

Hibiya OKUROJI, a commercial space built into the arches beneath elevated train tracks near Hibiya and Yurakucho, is part of a broader Tokyo trend of repurposing under-track spaces for shops, dining, and small-scale cultural events.
