Contemporary Landscape

Can you notice something yellow and something black in the distance?

This is the island of Naoshima in Japan, known as an island of contemporay art. Two famous art galleries by Ando Tadao are built there: the Chichu Art museam and the Benesse Hotel Art Museam. This shot was taken from the balcony of the Benesse, and just behind the balcony inside is a painting of a beach with a yellow boat and a black boat; which was originally meant to go with the actual yellow and black boat seen here as one piece of work, but eventually they made another set of boats, and put them in front of the painting. If I had not run into the tourguide I would have not noticed the boats on the beach. If you look closer; you can also to a tiny white photo frame placed smack dab on a hill (there were several of these photo frames displayed in the balcony area; sorry if you can’t see them here; they are much more clear in the actual photo)

    Another work from Japan? You should have brought this one out sooner. The colors, scenery and resolution are just awesome. I love it.

  • Mui-Ling Teh replied

    Thanks. I may still have more coming; I took lots of pictures while I was in Japan, and they are all burned on CDs, and so it takes time going through them. Sometimes I have a hard time deciding whether the images are worth putting up or not.
