Higo consistently works on the fictions that society and individuals create both intentionally and unintentionally, and how they propagate. For example he has created works based on the meaningless made-up words that are inserted into dictionaries to prevent copyright infringement, and a phantom island that exists as data on Google Maps but does not exist in reality.
In this exhibition, he unravels the story behind the thermo-hygrometers used in art galleries and museums, using them to create a new installation.
