HAPPY TURN/Kozushima

  • Finished

"Shima no niwa-biraki” island garden development project Part 3

Genre:
  • Art Project

Seeking participants to cut grass and have fun together

The garden of“Kuruto,” the hub of art project HAPPY TURN / Kozushima, used to be a sandy piece of ground surrounded by concrete walls.
It is now a meeting place for children after school, giving rise to all sorts of fun and games.
If we cut the grass of other disused gardens on the island and made them look nice, they could be places where things could happen or begin.
We are now conducting Part 3 of the “Shima no niwa-biraki” island garden development project,” an initiative that began with this idea. We look forward to your participation.
