A couple of weeks ago, I went for a walk at Sunport Takamatsu like I sometimes do on weekends, when I found myself twice intrigued when I arrived at the waterfront (more precisely at this part of Sunport called Seto Sea Palette). Check this out: The first thing, you’ve noticed […]

This post is a little different from the other Setouchi Triennale 2019 posts so far, as it doesn’t focus on one single day, but rather on one artist and his art. Namely, Xiang Yang and his amazing project on Shodoshima called: The Shore Where We Can Reach Xiang Yang’s […]
During my last trip to Shodoshima in July (the next one is planned for next weekend, by the way), I was hoping to maybe meet with Hans Op de Beeck who was putting the finishing touches to his new artwork for the Setouchi Triennale 2019. His installation is called The […]
Thanks to the Setouchi Triennale, you get to see great art, visit awesome islands, have a lot of fun overall. And also, you get to meet great people. This year, among them, is Xiang Yang and wonderful artist and human being whom I had the chance to spend time with […]

Kind of. While most of Japan seems to be in full cherry blossom season mode, they’re really taking their time in Takamatsu this year. I just returned from the cherry tree from the other side of the street and here is what I got for you: I really […]
Every time a new edition of the Setouchi Triennale is around the corner, one of the “traditions” of this blog is to interview a few of the artists who are taking part in the festival. This year, it’s Sarah Westphal who kindly answered my questions first. We briefly met last […]
Today, I’m gonna tell you about the nerdiest thing I have done related to the Setouchi Islands, and probably one of the nerdiest things in my life. See, when I first started visiting the islands 10 years ago, for some reason (I forgot what it was) I started counting how […]
