Looking Back on 2024 (vol. 2)

July
The summer of this year was especially hotter and lasted longer than other years. I’d like to take photos even through it’s hot. So, the number of visiting to museums of art increases when it becomes summer, because the inside of a building has cool air conditioning.

  • Showa Retro Exh.

    Osaka Museum of Housing and Living

    Ikuta Jinjya Shrine in Kobe

  • Tadanori Yokoo, Hanshan & Shide

    Koji Kinutani, Fujin Raijin

August
I went to a Noh theater for the first time. The stage of Noh was beautiful but not as large as I thought. I’d like to make a Noh mask if I can do it.

  • Kingyo Museum in Nara

    Oe Noh Theater in Kyoto, Noh Mask

  • 3D Art Exh., Nara City Museum of Art

    Noh Stage

    Noh Performance

September
Although Misono Building is a legend building representing a subculture of Osaka, it’ll be demolished in the next year. On the other hand, new big commercial facilities opened on the west and north sides of Osaka Station and accordingly the flow of people might change.

November
Architecture in each shrine and temple is characteristic and interesting in its own way and, at the same time, the events held there are also quite interesting. I saw a large crowd of wild deer in a town of Kyoto, which has just recently been seen sometimes.
