Project "Hamster collection - A hamster works and collects Art -
3-month project at the Tokyo Wonder Site Berlin residency program of this Institute. Various works from Berlin-based artists collected and displayed as Kojima's private collection with the purpose of raising awareness about the relationship between art and society and how it should be reconsidered. Hamster Sako Kojima undertook exchange task for renting the participating Artists’ work instead of paying a rental fee. Payment for the rental of the works is only labour, not cash. Each artist decided the exchange task. Kojima wished to meet the artists’ needs with wearing a Hamster costume. Such tasks were vary from working as the artist assistant, cleaning, cutting hair, cooking and so on.
