The exhibition "They Do Not Understand Each Other" brings into dialogue commissions and artworks from the collections of the National Museum of Art, Osaka (NMAO) and the Singapore Art Museum (SAM), which consider the negotiations and expectations of culture. After all, if the premise of culture is representation, then the promise of cultural exchange—as one might reasonably suppose—is understanding.
Through these artworks, a range of connections—and thus the possibilities of understanding—are manifest, in various forms as well as intensities. They speak to boundaries, borders, gaps, spaces, surfaces, interfaces, and divisions that exist because of—for lack of a better word—an unevenness in encounters between individuals, peoples, and things. Such unevenness is inevitable, and from this unevenness, curiosity in the unfamiliar and the new springs forth, as well as the impulse to discover. In fact, one might even say that cultural experience is couched upon this encounter and the disclosure that follows.

展覽「言語不通」滙合來自日本國立國際美術館（大阪）及新加坡美術館的收藏和委約新作進行互相對話，聚焦於對文化的協商和期望。說到底，假如文化是建基於「再現」，那麼文化交流——正如我們可以合理地預期——的果實就是互相理解。
這些藝術作品具有豐富多彩的形式和濃淡不一的手法，呈現出各式各樣的聯繫，從而有可能在不同層面產生互相理解。作品探討的是在我們周圍出現的諸多界限、邊界、間隙、空間、表面、界面和分隔。之所以存在這些空隙，是因為人、事、物之間的接觸往往參差不勻。這種參差不勻無可避免，但正是由於參差不勻，才會催生出對陌生和嶄新事物的好奇，湧現出探索的衝動。實際上，我們甚至可以說文化體驗就是建立於這種相遇和隨之而來的發現。
