    This newly established program aims to support contemporary artists, and after a highly competitive selection process—including document screening and in-person interviews—two artists, Yuki Harada and Ms. Kayoko Nakashima, were chosen.

    Harada will spend approximately three months in 2025 at the Brooklyn Experimental Art Foundation (BEAF) in New York, engaging in research and fostering exchanges with local artists and communities.
