向山 晃大 Koudai Mukaiyama
向山晃大は1996年山口県生まれ。作品空間を通して、作家と鑑賞者はあらゆる事柄を共有する。空間を使った体験だけでなく、パフォーマンス自体を作品とするような、あらゆる形態での表現を試みている。空間・時間的な「体験」を使用し、向山は体験者（鑑賞者）へ、より親密な体験の提供を目指している。また、アーティスト、キュレーター、建築など、１つにこだわる事なく挑戦している。それらから得た学び全てをより良い「体験の提供」の実現へと繋げる。
Kodai Mukaiyama was born in 1996 in Yamaguchi Prefecture. Through his exhibition, the artist and the audience share time, space, and feelings. When the audience have an affinity for works in a space he made, they share fun and interests with the artist. Mukaiyama has been trying to communicate with audience not only via the experience through his exhibition, but also via the process and performance itself of making works. He considers the process and performance also as a part of his works. Using spatial and temporal experience, Mukaiyama aims to build more intimate relationships between his works and the viewers. Mukaiyama have many faces, such as an artist, curator, architect, and more. He does not stick to one, and that leads him to the realization and learning to offer better experience.
My Mother Gave Me A Lizard Necklace When I Was Little, Which Is My Treasure. I Wear It All The Time. I Feel At Ease With It. It Feels Like The Lizard Necklace Saves And Protects Me.At That Time My Mother Handed The Necklace Over To Me With A Usual Look On Her Face. It May Have Been Just A Normal Thing For Her, But I Considered It Meaningful. It Has The Mystic Force And Saves Me. With The Strong, Sharp And Supple Force, It Protects Me. Its Broad Mind Is Enough To Cover Over My Heart. I Must Keep It.
