After visiting Shodoshima, today, let’s head to Teshima with a quick visit of various spots on the island. Just like the previous visit, it was made with some people from Koebi and the Setouchi Triennale‘s Organizing Committee. I’ll probably disclose the reason later, when it’s all said and done. 😉 […]

A few days after visiting Inujima and Teshima, we went to… Teshima! Again. However, it’s a different “we”. This time, I didn’t go with my family, but with my friend Cathy Hirano, who also co-writes an awesome blog about Takamatsu and its surroundings. It goes without saying that I warmly […]
Today, I want to show you around Ieura (pronounce: “Ih-eh-oorah”) on Teshima. It’s going to be a brief visit, I’m not going to show you every nook, just a few pictures of the village that you will most likely see when you come to Teshima, as this is where […]
So, on Monday, despite a temperature of about 35°C (which means that it felt like pretty much 40°C) we went to spend the day on Teshima. The reason of that small trip will be revealed in a few days and posts. Meanwhile, here is a short tale of the […]

It was designed by German artist Tobias Rehberger for the Setouchi International Art Festival 2010. At first, […]
I may have previously briefly mentioned the fast boats that link Takamatsu to Naoshima and Teshima. Today, I’m talking about one of them, the Teshima Artline, into more details. It’s not exacty the cheapest boat in the area (a one way ticket to Teshima will cost you […]
Yes, today’s artwork from the Setouchi International Art Festival has a German title! It is called Was du liebst, bringt dich auch zum weinen, which basically means: “Everything you love makes you cry” (Thanks to Thias for correcting my previously bad translation) As you will have already guessed, it was created […]
On our first trip to Teshima, we didn’t see all of the works of art (and only one of the three villages) so we had to go back. Going to Teshima on a Saturday was a risky idea. See, the festival organizers had seriously underestimated the number of people it […]
