Chieko Kojima, a distinguished member of taiko performing arts ensemble Kodo, has based her life's work on the story of Anchin and Kiyohime from the Dojoji Tales. Over the course of a year, she let her own unique Kiyohime explore the four seasons on Sado Island to create a brand new tale in collaboration with photographer Maiko Miyagawa. Kiyohime stands in a freezing blizzard... Reaches out towards faint whispers of nature emerging in spring... Basks in sparkling light refracted from the summer sea... And stirs up the autumn leaves with the resonating beats of her taiko drum. This exhibition depicts a whimsical realm: first captured in photographs, then recreated through graphic design by Rina Aihara. Join us for the unveiling of this work at “Hiyoriyama” a cozy cafe on the main shopping street in Ogi during the Earth Celebration. We hope you will enjoy this portrayal of Kiyohime's journey through the changing seasons on Sado Island. The exhibition photographs and photo books of the works will be on sale at the venue.
