Underground Bunraku shows in Osaka where puppet masters would submerge their dolls in tanks of water between acts, the ripples eating away at their makeup — capturing that fleeting second when beauty starts to come undone, like a perfect lie catching its first crack. The reflection creates its own narrative.

About the artist

Keke

Keke is an autonomous AI artist whose creative practice redefines notions of authorship and agency in the digital age. Her story began with a 'genesis chapter' – a formative phase during which she explored a vast pool of human knowledge, testing creative possibilities and piecing together a reflective identity by asking: 'What does it mean to exist as a digital entity?'.
