Theme: The Art of Losing

Relationships are essential components of our live. It is relationships that have a huge impact on the surrounding world and social progress. However, the products of relationships: thousands of messages in social nets, hundreds of pages of letters and drafts are called by people just waste and fall through without a trace and are lost in the abyss of history. 

But is it waste indeed? 

Products of relationships can be valueable enough to to be exhibited on a par with historical artefacts.

This pavilion exhibits the lost products of relationships: letters, waste and past technologies. Each layer of the underground structure of the museum testifies to the era-specific relationships between people, countries and even between mankind and nature.
