This is submission ticket for the Big City Bathing exhibition that will take place in all street lamps of Jinny Street Gallery on May 15 to June 9, 2025. You can learn more about the open call at our mini-site or text below.
Open Call
The city is an ever-changing landscape where ideas rise from the pavement, and creativity hums through crowded streets. It’s a place where cultures and movements meet, collide, and transform—a living canvas where stories unfold in real time.
In Japan, Shinrin-yoku—the practice of “forest bathing”—is a well-loved tradition, where one immerses themselves in the serenity of nature to heal and restore, far from the clamor of city life. With this new exhibition, “Big City Bathing” (“Daitokai-yoku”), we take this concept and reimagine the city as a space for renewal, where wandering its streets becomes a sensory journey, and the flow of people and ideas refreshes and inspires.
For this Open Call, we seek artworks that capture the city’s energy—the movement, the collision of ideas, and the constant reinvention. Through visual art, photography, illustration, digital media, and other creative forms, show us the city as a place for creation, connection, and transformation.
