I don’t know if many foreign residents of Japan read my blog, but this post is mostly for you. And I wrote it especially with residents of Kagawa Prefecture in mind. It’s an update of the situation of the Setouchi Islands regarding the Covid-19 pandemic. In short, since the pandemic became […]

The day was May 7th. It was the first day post Golden Week, my sixth day spent on an island for the Setouchi Triennale 2019, including my third on Ogijima (yes, this Spring session, was Ogijima-heavy indeed, but my life is Ogijima-heavy, so it makes sense…). Finally, the crowds were […]
On our fifth day visiting an island for the Setouchi Triennale 2019, we returned to Ogijima for a very special occasion. See, the Setouchi Triennale is not just art exhibits, museums, and installations. It’s also about events, big and small. Sometimes it’s a concert, sometimes it’s a unique performance that’s […]
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 […]
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. […]
Oh no, I got attacked by a white rabbit again! OK, so, about 10 days ago was the last leg of my series of tours with the people from Koebi and the Setouchi Triennale’s Organizing Committee for you-know-what. 😉 This time we went to both Megijima and Ogijima, and […]
Fun fact: I don’t think I had been to Megijima in the past two years (wow, really? I guess I’m too busy going to Ogijima all the time 😉 ), when suddenly… I went last week, I went yesterday and I’m returning there on Saturday…. What’s happening? <suspenseful music…> Don’t […]
I was on Ogijima today, but the weather was pretty bad, so no pictures were taken (I still had a great time catching up with friends). So instead here is a few pictures I took last month. It’s going to be one more occasion to enjoy the cherry blossoms. […]
Yep. I’m back. Finally… What did you think? That I had abandoned you? Of course not. So, I returned Monday night from France. It was good to be home for a while. Now it’s time to go back to my regular schedule, in my life and in this blog […]
Above the Oni cave on Megijima, there’s a small “park” with a great view of the Seto Inland Sea and the neighboring islands, including this very interesting view of Ogijima from an unusual angle.
