Venice Biennale Opens: Arawa Nassh's 'Baby' Installation Explores Care and the Future in the Japanese Pavilion
Summary
The Venice Biennale's Japanese Pavilion features Arawa Nassh's participatory installation 'Grass Baby, Moon Baby,' where visitors interact with weighted baby dolls to experience 'care.' Inspired by Nassh's experience as a queer parent, the exhibit questions the future for children. Multimedia elements include sound works and a film titled 'My Twins’ First Film,' while QR codes on doll diapers provide poems by YUKARI Ishii, linking birthdays to historical events like women's suffrage and Nassh's diaspora.
