Good news! I went to Takamatsu Sunport last week (I can’t believe I hadn’t really been since the end of the Setouchi Triennale) and Lin Shuen Long‘s amazing artwork, Beyond the Border – the Ocean is still standing. I wasn’t sure what would happen to it, and I […]

This week, one of the most moving artworks of the Setouchi Triennale 2016 was dismantled, and it made me really sad. Sure, it never was meant to be permanent, it’s somewhat short lifespan was actually part of the whole point, but I don’t know, I wish it would have […]
It’s been quite a while since I last treated you with a picture of Shinji Ohmaki‘s Liminal Air – Core – located in Takamatsu Sunport. So, here is one. Fun fact: just after taking the picture, I hoped on the boat right behind, to Shodoshima.
Today, we’re briefly revisiting a permanent artwork dating from 2013 and that is located on Shamijima. This is Tanya Preminger‘s Stratums : For some reason, I do have a some spot for this work. Maybe because, it’s the best kind of land art… If you don’t pay close […]

It’s often the same problem during the Setouchi Triennale, I’m too busy to blog. Of course, every day that turns out to be a free day is used to visit some art, and then at night, I’m just too tired to write anything. This time, add to that the fact that […]
Today, I’m going to tell you about a very special artwork of the Setouchi Triennale. It’s located in the village of Konoura on Shodoshima. It is called stories – House – by Yume Akasaka. I saw it for the first time back in 2013, and it instantly became one […]
