For this third part of my adventures in the Setouchi Triennale 2019, we’re heading to my favorite place in the area if not in Japan: Ogijima. Before we go any further, if you haven’t done so, please read the previous episodes: Part One: Shodoshima Part Two: Shamijima (and Seijima) The […]
There are only 10 days left in the Spring session of the Setouchi Triennale 2019, so it’s not too late to tell you about Madeleine Flynn‘s & Tim Humphrey‘s art on Shamijima. Or rather, have them talk about it. They were very kind to answer my question right before the […]
This year I had decided to blog about my Setouchi Triennale 2019 visits in chronological order, and as early as my second post about it, I’m throwing a wrench into it. See, I’ve been quite busy and I also caught a nasty cold (my son has started preschool; random nasty […]
Golden Week has come and gone, and some Setouchi Triennale attendance records may have been broken. Finally, there’s some time to breathe and to blog. Today I want to introduce an artist whose art is located on Shamijima, which means that it will only be available for the Spring Session […]
It has started! On Friday, April 26th. I mean the Setouchi Triennale 2019, of course. However, as it was a Friday and I couldn’t escape from work (why didn’t the festival start on a holiday or a weekend as it did the previous years? no idea), I missed that first […]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted pictures of the Go’o Shrine on Naoshima. If you want to read what it is about, please go check the main article that I have written about it a short while ago: Go’o Shrine on Naoshima In short, the building […]
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 […]
Last weekend was a pretty busy one. Four islands were visited in two days. Oshima, Megijima, and Ogijima on Saturday, Shodoshima on Sunday. The reason was a preview of a certain number of the Setouchi Triennale 2019 new artworks’ sites. Why? With whom? How did I manage three islands in […]
Another day on Ogijima? Sure, why not? Last Saturday, Team Ogi was supposed to bring its new artwork for the Setouchi Triennale 2019 to Ogijima. However, they were behind schedule, and we ended up being 24 hours early. Rest assured, Team Ogi did bring its art on the following day. […]
