世界を歩いて、おみやげを選ぶ。
2024年秋、SNARK Inc.メンバーは4つのチームに分かれ、フィンランド・スリランカ・台湾へ海外研修の旅に出かけた。旅の目的は、文化に触れ、街を歩き、人と出会い、自らの感性を開くこと。本展では、現地で見つけた「愛すべきおみやげたち」を展示・販売した。ルールは「一人3,000円以内、ストーリーを語れるものを3種類まで」。土地の空気や記憶がにじむ小さな品々、旅の経路、街の風景、美術館のガイドマップなども紹介した。

To walk the world and gather its stories, one souvenir at a time.
In the autumn of 2024, the members of SNARK Inc. ventured across Finland, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan, divided into four teams. This was a journey to touch the skin of a culture, to walk its rhythms, and to open one’s senses to the unknown. This exhibition brings together the beloved mementos found along the way—not merely objects, but vessels of the places they represent. Adhering to a humble rule —up to three items within a 3,000 yen budget, each with a story to tell— the collection presents small tokens imbued with the breath and memory of distant lands. Alongside these artifacts, we share travel routes, streetscapes, and museum maps, inviting visitors to trace the lingering essence of our journeys.
