About the Online Venue

exonemo: UN-DEAD-LINK is an exhibition that consists of a physical venue at the museum and an online venue.

The online venue (www.topmuseum.jp/un-dead-link) showcases exonemo’s back catalog, along with the two online works being shown at this exhibition: Realm and UN-DEAD-LINK 2020. All these are presented in an interactive timeline that chronicles the duo’s activities, offering further insight into their art. The timeline provides extra background information about the artworks, each tagged with various keywords that allow visitors to discover new connections.

The exhibits at the museum, which consist of artwork and documentation, are arranged in chronological order except for Signature, 2020 and The Kiss. Each exhibit is also tagged with one of five thematic keywords proposed by the artists – Internet, Platform, Interface, Random, and Boundary – that link them to other works.
