The purification of mountains, the mask of water
While many art festivals and traditional festivals have been canceled or postponed due to the influence of the covid-19, this year’s primitive sense art festival has the theme of “The purification of mountains, the mask of water.”It is an attempt to see what kind of festival we need under the current situation.
Primitive Sense
When people straightly face to the nature, primitive sense will return to our feeling. I think fine art is born at that moment. “Nature” is not only at outside of us, contains the life of ourselves, inherited from the origin of life. The true richness is that there is beauty normally in the living that has been inherited from the Jomon period. We will create a local “culture” by staying on the shore of Lake Kizaki, which is surrounded by the majestic nature of the Japanese Northern Alps, and creating expressions that can only be created by meeting local people who live there.It is to create a festival as a cultural boundary that connects the outside and the locals, connects art and tradition, and cities and regions.
