Interesting!
People dressed as museum artifacts in South Korea. They are part of a cosplay festival called “Dress Like a Museum Exhibit.” Contestants portrayed temple bells, royal seals, and tomb guardians.
The winner: an adorable carp-shaped water dropper, played by Jeon Eun-seul.

The Ningyo Kuyo (or Ningyo Kansha-sai), held annually every October at Meiji Jingu Shrine in Tokyo, is a solemn Shinto ceremony where people bring old, unwanted, or broken dolls and plush toys for a respectful farewell.
Many Japanese people believe that well-loved dolls absorb memories or develop a spiritual presence over time, making them difficult to simply throw in the trash. Participants write expressions of gratitude on paper cutouts called hitogata. Shinto priests perform purification rites and prayers to release the dolls’ spirits. The dolls are blessed so families can let go of them peacefully.

Join interdisciplinary artist Erik Bergrin for an immersive exploration of The Eight Dissolutions, a series of figurative sculptures and video works inspired by Buddhist visualization practices he first encountered while studying at a monastery in Nepal. More than an artist talk, this program explores the intersection of Buddhist philosophy, meditation, lucid dreaming, and material experimentation. Using The Eight Dissolutions as a starting point, Bergrin examines how visualization practices, contemplative traditions, and altered states of consciousness can be translated into physical form through textiles, sculpture, video, and experimental biomaterials like crystals, bismuth formations, kombucha-based textiles, and seaweed-based fabrics. Two sculptures from the series are currently on view at the Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art. The program includes a talk, time for audience Q&A, and concludes with a guided "finding your shadows" meditation, adapted from a Tibetan Buddhist visualization practice that invites participants to engage with a personal obstacle through imagination and dialogue. This event offers a rare chance to experience the ideas behind the work through both discussion and practice.

In Singapore, paper effigy houses are elaborate, hand-crafted miniature residences made from bamboo, string, paper, and glue. Built by a tiny handful of remaining traditional artisans, these structures are fully decorated and burned during Chinese funerals or ancestral rituals so deceased loved ones can use them in the afterlife. Families commission or buy these paper houses so ancestors have a comfortable home. During Taoist or Buddhist funerary rites or Hungry Ghost Festival offerings, the physical paper house is set ablaze, symbolically transferring it to the spiritual realm.

It’s been 4 years since my “THE 8 DISSOLUTIONS,”video had its 4 week run in Times Square. This was so cool to see.
This billboard run was part of a conjoining show at @zaz10ts gallery in times sq. The sculpture pieces were around the corner in the gallery.
You can watch the full video on my website under The 8 Dissolutions.
