The Japanese pavilion which was curated by Meruro Washida of the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Kanazawa, will show the exhibition of the “Turned Upside Down, It’s a Forest”, by Takahiro Iwasaki. He is an artist from Hiroshima known for his popular art work, “Reflection Model” which produces a beautiful reflection on the surface of the water using wooden architecture. The situation of contemporary Japan is presented from various viewpoints, such as the ideal way of energy, the borders of the sea and the swaying earth using various motifs such as: a tower, a crane, an industrial area along the sea, an oil rig on the sea, and the Itsukushima shrine.
