The Perfect Place to Visit if You’re an Introverted Artist

The Perfect Place to Visit if You’re an Introverted Artist

Exploring the beauty and serenity the Art Islands have to offer by walking around Naoshima. We visited some of the Art Houses, the Ando Museum, Yayoi Kusama’s red pumpkin, and ate some incredible food. We visited in late February which is low season for the islands but it made for a quiet and peaceful experience.

Stay tuned for Part 2 where we explore Chichu Art Museum, Benesse House Museum, Hiroshi Sugimoto Gallery: Time Corridors, architecture by Tadao Ando and more before hopping on a boat to nearby island, Teshima.
