About the artwork

The closed building of Kiyotsukyo Elementary school was re-opened as an information centre for the Nakasato area. Marbles were laid out on the table to express the flow of Kiyotsu river along with photos and texts introducing must-see spots in the area whereas the passage connecting the school building with the gymnasium held an installation of photos collected from the school and the village. The team produced a lunch box full of locally grown vegetables in collaboration with locals which was sold in the hexagon-shaped bento box referred to the school badge in snow crystal shape.
