Berlin-based artist Yutaka Makino created the exhibition Contingent Matter for the 20th Anniversary of Villa Aurora during his artist residency. 

This mixed media installation was exhibited in the DTLA BOLDspace for one week. People were encouraged to experience the space and interpret their feelings independently, with little to no preface to the space.

This mysterious and subtle installation was sponsored and generously supported by the German Consulate, Villa Aurora, and BOLD. BOLD hosted the week-long exhibition including the organization of an intimate opening event on the evening of November 20th.
