Art House Project
Gokaisho
Gokaisho (literally "a meeting place to play go") was built where a gathering place for go players once stood. Artist Yoshihiro Suda turned the entire building into an ideal presentation setting for his Tree of Spring sculpture inside, which was inspired by the painting Falling Camellia by Hayami Gyoshu. There is an intriguing contrast between this sculpture and the real camellia outside in the garden.
