BUG, operated by Recruit Holdings Co., Ltd. is pleased to present a solo exhibition by yang02 “Flying Organs” starting Wednesday, February 25, 2026. yang02 has previously presented works utilizing technologies like AI and Segways, casting a critical gaze toward progressivism and capitalism. The artist also attempts to re-examine the physicality and subjectivity of humans in relation to these technologies.
The exhibition title “Flying Organs” refers to the state where technology, as an externalized “organ,” can be detached from its foundational “organic body” and reconfigured. Simultaneously, it represents the reality that technologies like drones and AI, from their flying positions, have substituted for human organs such as eyes, hands, and brains, and have sometimes been utilized for violence, including war. In this exhibition, yang02 questions how we should confront the nature of technology and the current realities it engenders. Please experience the new work, which fully utilizes BUG’s ceiling height (7.2 meters), featuring AI-equipped drones and devices attempting to shoot them down, engaged in repeated dialogue.
Born in Kanagawa Prefecture, 1984. Presents works in formats including two-dimensional pieces, sculptures, installations, and performances.
