G8美术馆位于东京银座，专门展示视觉传达设计作品，“非印刷品”就是在此展出。正如平面设计师以纸为媒介表达他们的想法，这次展览也涉及到了纸，但是是从一个不同的角度来表达。设计师没有使用实际的纸张，而是通过手工和3D打印，创造了纸的轮廓以表现纸的存在。有些轮廓展现完整的纸张，有些则展现了纸被折叠后的形状，还有一些展现了纸被撕开后纤维状的断口，纸的所有细节都在这些轮廓上被体现出来，用以传达人们日常生活中对纸张特性的感受。
An exhibition held at Creation Gallery G8, a gallery dedicated to visual communication in Ginza, Tokyo. Graphic designers use paper as a medium to express their ideas. Similarly, we wanted to work with paper but approach it from a different angle. Working both by hand and with a 3D printer, we created outlines of paper as an expression of that paper without actually using paper itself. Some of the outlines display rounding, while others show signs of the paper having once been folded. In another, when the paper is torn away, the torn section appears to have feathery layers with fibers. By zeroing in on the finer details and carefully representing them in the outlines, we attempted to capture that unique essence of paper that we have all felt at one time or another.
展览包括三个房间，第一个房间中悬挂着30张3毫米粗的A1海报轮廓，有的被撕开，有的被折叠；第二个房间里展示了明信片大小的纸张轮廓，粗细为一毫米，分为五个一组的多个系列，每个系列都呈现了纸张的某种变化过程；最后一个房间则用轮廓的形式展现了三维的纸制品，如纸袋，牛奶盒，纸杯和折纸，房间中还以动画形式提示参观者不同轮廓所代表的含义，激发人们的想象力，让他们可以更好地理解展览内容。展览的标题“非印刷品”既呼应了展览中没有实际的纸张出现，又暗示了设计概念中“印刷品”的存在。
The gallery consists of three rooms. In the first, 30 sheets of A1-sized posters with outlines measuring 3mm thick are suspended in space, with torn or folded pieces scattered throughout. In the second room, multiple series of large postcard-sized paper with 1mm-thick outlines each show five different stages within the process of that paper being modified in some way. In the final room, outlines are used in the same way to represent 3D objects that are made of paper, such as paper bags, milk cartons, paper cups, and origami figures. An animated film that provides hints about what the outlines represent plays in the room in an attempt to stimulate the imaginations of visitors. The title of the exhibition – un-printed material – is a play on the term “printed material” that alludes to the concept of the designs.
