Constructing Imperial Japanese Memory

Seoul, Taiwan, Nanjing 2017 | Using the method of intercultural exchange | Museums are institutions of collecting, preserving and power of interpretation as representative memory places. The project compares the visual and audible mediation of museums in different countries on the same issue of Imperial Japan.

In constructing identity museums deliminate and display strangness, as well as turning to one’s own culture and history. Exhibitions are places of tangible three-dimensionality, heterotopias in Foucault’s sense. As the place of this encounter with its history, the objects shown, its traceable traces, the spatial context in which an exhibition takes place has a decisive influence. The developed spatial design creates specific atmospheres, stimulates and triggers behavior, promotes communication and awakens associations, it puts visitors in moods and sensitizes them to perceptions.
