Teshima Museum after a shower

The Teshima Museum after a shower was completely mesmerizing with tiny raindrops scattered on the gently and slightly undulating floor. I always wanted to go there on a rainy day and this time it just so happened on a tour day when I took my guest. We said we came on the very special day. It was magical. Everybody in the museum was enchanted, sitting there quietly or leisurely walking around. My guest was so good at seeing the THREADS in the air. After I showed one of them to her, she was sensitive enough to find the other two as was so destined. A gold, silver, and red threads. 

    The surface was silverier than usual after a rainfall.

The Archives of the Heartbeats is not really my cup of tea because it's too heavy on me, but many enjoy having their heartbeat recorded on the spot. It only takes ten minutes and if you ask, you can right away hear your heartbeat in the HEART ROOM.

I first went to see the DISTANT MEMORY on one ordinary weekday when the entrance was loosely chained, and it was easy to go beyond the chain and reach the artwork and walk around. This time on Monday during the summer vacation, a lady was there. 

 It became sunny when we were there.

Big Bambu looks fun and genius. The phot was taken from a road in a distance. Too far away, so below is the web site you can see a large pic.

 In a bamboo grove the artwork is assembled. 

Yokoo House is relatively new and a good contrast of the Teshima Museum. The House is in charge of the death realm but life and death are not so apart. 

There are artistic dining or cafe-like places where you can chill particularly if your visit falls on the weekend. Take time in Teshima though Teshima and Inujima can be cleverly combined and done in a day. For that you need a guide as your strategist, though.

Enjoy the photos and dream of your day in Teshima. Remember the art facilities are closed on Tuesday.
