 Ai Weiwei presented a large-scale installation addressing the ongoing refugee crisis with recovered life jackets covering the columns of Yokohama Museum of Art, which is a gesture aimed to gain solidarity with refugees trying to cross the Mediterranean to a better life. The typical Japanese is likely unaware of the atrocities occurring on the other side of the planet.
After Japan experienced a similar exodus of refugees fleeing war-torn Japan for overseas countries to build their business, farms, and heal their families in Brazil, and other locations abroad, it was hoped that the exhibition might bringer greater awareness to the lives of the refugees.

 Dale-chan taking her break in a pool of water that flows over glazed glass walls in Aka Renga Park. The glass walls are just huge squares with no roof. A peek from above shows pumps and ducts for a heat exchange and storage system for the nearby Red Brick Warehouses, which were built in 1911 and 1913. Such old buildings have no flat roof surface for the cooling & heating systems. A lot of tourists mistake the glass walls with water flowing over as works of art.
