Sayonara 2006: Episode 1.


Naoshima is a bizarre and beautiful island in the Seto Inland sea. As part of Kagawa prefecture it is most famous for it's rather breathtaking artworks and natural beauty. The photo above is an example of one of the many artworks which lies around the Benesse Art Site area, this one being "Pumpkin" by Yayoi kasuma. Less famous is the fact that north of the island is owned by Mitsubishi and is used as a waste-processing plant. It is also the place where we had our annual sayonara party, staying overnight in accomodations next to the beach (to clarify, we stayed near the art site, NOT the waste-processing plant).Posted by Picasa
