Shrine of Triskele 三つ巴の祠
This land art work was created in Toga Village, Toyama Prefecture. The site is enclosed by trees, with a clearing open to the sky at its center. From this place, I conceived a space that rises powerfully from the earth, becoming one with the land. At the heart of the composition is the geometric form of the "Triskele" — a symbol of center, force, and cyclical movement. Three vertices reach toward the sky, carving a small opening to the heavens above. The exterior takes its form from the pit dwellings of Japan's Jomon period, designed to become one with the earth itself. This is a place to listen to the sounds of nature, to look up at the sky, and to offer quiet prayer within the landscape.
富山県利賀村に制作したランドアートです。 敷地は木々に囲まれ、中央にぽっかりと空が開いた場所でした。その大地と一体化するように、力強く立ち上がる空間を考えました。 形の核となるのは、中心・力・循環を象徴する「三脚巴」の幾何学的です。縄文の竪穴住居のように大地からつながり、天へと立ち上がる三つの頂点が、中央に小さく空を切り取ります。 ここは、自然の音に耳を傾け、空を見上げ、静かに祈りを捧げることができる場所、大地の祠です。
