In “The state one reaches by the age of 9, and the sunshine of those days”, Ryoko Aoki (b.1973, Hyogo) and Zon Ito (b.1971, Osaka) present a video work. This exhibition is a further development from the video installation currently exhibited in “Ways of Worldmaking” at the National Museum of Art, Osaka.

Since 2000, the pair‟s practice has been receiving high acclaim in shows such as “The Yokohama Triennale 2001”, “Roppongi Crossing: New Visions in Contemporary Japanese Art 2004”, “I still believe in miracles” (Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, 2005) as well as exhibitions overseas in Italy, Switzerland, Australia, Germany and Taiwan.
