Mihara presents systems that openly engages with the world and interprets them into the “art” of materials and phenomena such as acoustics, bubbles, radiation, rainbows, microbes, moss, air streams, soil and electrons. Since 2011, he has been exhibiting in and outside Japan the ‘blanks project’ exploring the relationship between technologies and the society. He has traveled to 11 locations in eight countries for residency programs since 2013, covering centers of contemporary art to extreme environments, from the Arctic Circle to the Amazon rain forest, from the DMZ to the Bio Art Lab.
