Chim↑Pom
Known as ‘the subversive face of the Japanese contemporary art scene,’ the Chim↑Pom collective was created in Tokyo in 2005 by Ryuta Ushiro, Yasutaka Hayashi, Ellie, Masataka Okada, Motomu Inaoka, and Toshinori Mizuno. In 2016, the collective created the international long-term exhibition Don’t follow the wind in the restricted Fukushima Exclusion Zone and opened Garter gallery in Tokyo, a space run by artists to select and present works by their contemporaries. In 2022, now as Chim↑Pom from Smappa!Group, the artists presented their first retrospective at the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo.
