Workshop | “Fragments of Memory”
Salt salvaged from a sculpture destroyed in the Noto Peninsula earthquake is reborn as wearable art. Participants of all ages—children, adults, and seniors—are invited to encase a single grain of memory in resin and carry it close to the heart. Come and experience the moment when a precious memory connects quietly with your own.
Organized by: Oku-Noto Triennale Executive Committee and Fragments of Memory Project Executive Committee (Representative: Motoi Yamamoto)
What is the Fragments of Memory Project ?
After the Noto earthquake, a 3-metre salt tower created for the Oku-Noto Triennale collapsed into white rubble. Instead of discarding the salt, we invite people to transform each tiny crystal into a personal relic they can wear—a quiet gesture that keeps the memory of the disaster, and of those we have lost, alive and close.
By sealing salt, light, and time inside a translucent pendant, we ask:
How do we hold on to what must not be forgotten?
Join us and let your own memories resonate with these small, glimmering fragments.
