The catalogue of the 2024 Forest Festival of the Arts Okayama: Clear-skies Country, ‘Tuning in to the forest’ represents a sublime selection of works, but also embodies one of the most radical and interesting attempts to reform the biennial model. Curator Yuko Hasegawa sees each artistic object and installation as channelling the identity of spaces already shaped by history and civilisation. The festival encompasses a variety of sites – forests, hot springs, waterfalls, highlands, caverns, historical post roads, Western-style buildings – and presents site-specific artworks and projects by various artists, architects, flower arrangers, designers, performers, and researchers.
