For today’s Setouchi Triennale 2013 work of art, we’re going to do things a little differently as I’m not the one who is going to tell you about Sunset House: Language as the house of Being, a permanent artwork located in the village of Kōnoura on the Mito Peninsula […]

Today’s Setouchi Triennale 2013 artwork brings us to Hitoyama, small village located in a small valley in the heart of Shōdoshima. Actually, when you’re there, you almost forget you are on an island, the place being surrounded by hills and mountains. I’d like to take the time to visit […]
Just some funny looking Daikon in the Shōdoshima countryside (more precisely in the village of Umaki)
By the way, this is where I was last week-end: After not going there in two years, I went to Shōdoshima for the second time in one month. This time we spent two days there (it was my first time sleeping on an island!) doing some tourism and […]
One of the reasons why we went to Shōdoshima on Sunday was to visit the MeiPAM art gallery that I had heard about a few months ago, but hadn’t had the chance to visit yet. This gallery is not affiliated with Art Setouchi, but that will happen pretty soon […]

We were on May 25th, 2009 and it was our last full day in Takamatsu, except that we didn’t spend it in Takamatsu, as we took the ferry in the morning to Shōdoshima (小豆島). There are a lot of interesting things on Shōdoshima, however, as it’s a much larger island […]
Here is an artwork that kinda left me wondering. It is called Giant in Our Minds (心の巨人) by Tatsuo Kawaguchi. I’m not sure how to talk about it except by rephrasing what the Setouchi International Art Festival 2010‘s official guide had to say. That is that when Mr. Kawaguchi entered […]
Back on Shōdoshima, there was this artwork called Lightening Shōdoshima (小豆島を輝かせる) that was composed of several projects and pieces spread over the villages of Hitoyama and Nakayama. Those projects were lead by Sense Art Studio, an artist group coming from Hong Kong. Here are their page (that has a great […]
