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 […]
Those two pictures of one of the sections of Rikuji Makabe‘s Wallalley on Ogijima were taken a couple of weeks ago. Originally, I didn’t mean to publish them here. I just took them to make sure of something and confirm my memory wasn’t playing tricks to me. […]

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. […]
I know the blog is quiet these days, that’s the problem when you run several blogs (and do many other things), sometimes some of them end up on the back-burner. Just a quick PSA to remind you that Art Setouchi 2018 is starting in just a week. Unfortunately, Haruki […]
You know what happens when you write two blogs in two different languages, with roughly (but not always) the same content? Sometimes, you “forget” some posts, sometimes you imagine that they exist when they don’t. And this is what happened to me a couple of days ago. Looking for a […]
