This catalogue accompanied the group exhibition TREASURE for TREASURE: A Treasure Exchange Project, which was carried out as part of Asahi Art Festival in 2003.  In this exhibition, a treasure does not refer to something expensive, but something that is precious for the owner if it is insignificant for everyone else, such as a favorite childhood toy, a souvenir of a trip, or an everyday item that one has used over many years.  The project invited public to submit their memory-packed treasures, so that each could be transformed into an artwork by one of the participating artists and then exchanged with another participant's treasure-turned-artwork.  The project and the exhibition took place in three locations; Tokyo, Sapporo, and Okinawa.  The catalogue features plates of works accompanied by the artist's statement.  The artist's biographies are included.
