108 ART PROJECT (Secretariat: Yamashita PMC Co., Ltd.) was launched in 2021 with the aim of enriching the landscape of the city and contributing to the creation of a bustling city with the power of art. With the cooperation of artists, we have developed various projects, starting with temporary enclosure art for new building construction sites, and have created new townscapes.

In this project, which is the 10th location, top partner Nishio Rent All will use the pedestrian deck of the R&D International Exchange Center built in Sakishima, Osaka (Suminoe-ku, Osaka) as the campus for the first time since its launch. A part of Maki Ohkojima's work, which was performed in Yodoyabashi PJ (January 2021 to March 2022), which is a project of Osaka, is republished.

Worked in India, Poland, China, Mexico, France, etc. Received the VOCA Encouragement Award in 2014. In 2017, he participated in the scientific exploration vessel Tara Pacific Project led by the Tara Ocean Foundation, which is supported by agnès b.
