Group exhibition by 4 male CASHI's artists; Shotaro Hokari, Yugo Kohrogi, Satoshi Miyata, and Keita Sugiura. The content is not easily imagined by hearing the exhibition name. However, in comparison with the namby-pamby image of "Grass" shown in "Herbivorous system boy", it seems to mean a powerful grass according to the press release. It might be near "Weed spirit" that was a popular word before. Korogi’s new painting differs from his past works with a pornography image. It has parted from the character, and considers life straight. The format of amount in Sugiura's 《Dark Forest》 is quite novel though the series is not a new work. The black frame involves the whole forest and emphasizes the deep darkness. The new solid work by Hokari soars in the hall just like a mineral by the dauntless externals. It is interesting that the “paper” works of Miyata includes many junk papers not like ordinary paper. It is difficult to distinguish whether they are "Sincere grass" by seeing only the exhibition works. However, it is an exhibition to make us expect it.
