Ogijima is a rather small island with most of the artworks found in the town around the port. I took a ferry from Takamatsu, which also made a stop at neighbouring island Megijima before reaching Ogijima, about 40mins away. (Photo: Jaclynn Seah)

Uncovering Art on Ogijima Island

Some of the island's art for Setouchi Triennale 2016

Ogijima is a small island in the Seto Inland Sea area that is about 40mins by ferry from Takamatsu. It is also one of the participating islands in the Setouchi Triennale, an arts festival that takes place every three years. I had just two hours to spend on this island before I had to catch my next ferry - thankfully most of the works are concentrated around the main village area, and while I didn't get to see every single artwork, here is what I checked out in my short time there. The Triennale runs for several consecutive weeks in Spring, Summer and Autumn, with some additional works only ready for show in the later seasons.
