Oku-Noto Triennale 2017 Permanent Works
The work stands where the road cuts off the old train tracks, like a rolling wave of changing colors. When viewers walk to the end of the path and look through the binoculars, they will see messages from the artist beyond Takojima Station, the terminal station of the former Noto Railway. You can see the former destination from the site of the railroad tracks and look beyond the scenery to a vision of the future.
