I\u2019m pleased to announce my participation in the Setouchi Triennale 2025 this fall. While details are yet to be confirmed, I will be creating and showcasing an installation in Utazu Town, Kagawa Prefecture, an area known for its historical significance as a center for salt production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Utazu Town, located near the center of Kagawa Prefecture, is the smallest town in the prefecture by area but has the highest population density. The town is said to have been home to \u201cOmiyama,\u201d an ancient site for worshiping a god residing on the cape. Today, Ubusuna Shrine stands on this sacred site. Originally known as Uwatatsu, the small port grew to become a significant port in the Heian period and later flourished under the rule of Hosokawa Yoriyuki, a close retainer of Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, as Shikoku\u2019s gateway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Edo period, Utazu became one of Japan\u2019s leading salt towns, with the coastline covered in salt fields. However, the salt industry was discontinued in 1947 due to national policy. In 1988, the traditional irihama-style salt field was restored, allowing visitors to experience salt-making techniques from the past. The former salt fields have been reclaimed and developed into a new town, while the old part of town, known as Komachi, preserves the architectural legacy of its once-thriving past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
