In this project which is held every autumn, two students majoring in sculpture at master's degree course of Tama Art University are selected by the professors and each has solo exhibition in Gallery K.

Sakurai Ryuhei features the theme of "smile and nature". "smile" is the expression which only human beings can use among every creatures, and it seems to have the essential function as to form our society, and to maintain it . On the other hand, Sakurai feels that he can smile from his heart when he is surrounded by the nature, and is communicating with it. But he also feels that we are gradually becoming estranged from the nature because of our society's materialism - surplus of production and the consumption. That skepticism about contemporary society has led him to the inspection about his own art activities - what is the meaning of my making art works? This time he will show the works that expresses the human state swinging between civilization and nature.
