52,224 dots. How do we fill them all?
A 6m × 2m wall packed with more than 50,000 tiny dots. Every dot and every pen is marked with a number. Just find the matching numbers and start coloring! This participatory art workshop welcomes everyone: kids, adults, even people just passing by. Little by little, small contributions add up, and over 22 days, four large-scale artworks will gradually come to life.
It couldn't be simpler.
Grab a pen at the venue, find the matching number, and fill in the dot.
A quick and fun art experience anyone can enjoy!
Drop by anytime and Join In!
Your dot becomes part of the art.
Each person fills in just a few small dots.
But as those dots add up, a large artwork slowly begins to take shape.
No one can finish it alone, which makes your participation a vital part of the creation.
Four Participating Artists
The theme is "Sunshine Aquarium".
Through the eyes of four different artists, Sunshine Aquarium is transformed into four unique works of art.
What kind of world will emerge?

Artworks to the streets.
Creating the future cityscape, together.
The four completed works, created by four artists alongside everyone who stopped to add their mark, will be installed on hoardings and street walls after the event.
The single dot you colored will become part of the cityscape that brings this neighborhood to life.
This initiative is the first step in a new project laumched by STUDIO201, starting here in Ikebukuro.
