A 3-day long weekend was had and my brother was visiting Japan. On the last few days of his trip, I headed down to meet up with him in Okayama for our final adventure – a trip to Teshima and Naoshima islands also known as the Art Islands.
Truth was, I was supposed to go there over the last Christmas/New Years break, but you might recall no adventures were had by me and I stuck around in Tokyo for personal reasons. So at last, I finally got to go with brother and a friend in tow.
Day 1 was Teshima. Day 2 and 3 was Naoshima.
I’m just gonna jump to the highlight of the trip which was posing around with oversized pumpkin sculptures (all in the name of art).
Currently obsessed with giant plastic polka-dotted pumpkins.
This is the yellow one (yes, more than one oversized pumpkin!) located on Naoshima island and brought hours of entertainment.
I think I foresee a future as a pumpkin model:
Super excited about giant pumpkins. I can barely contain myself:
Pushing Pumpkins. Beats pushing papers:
No selfie is complete without a giant pumpkin in it:
Note, that these photos are from the Yellow Pumpkin Day 1 album. More of the same yellow pumpkin photos taken on Day 2!
Artist is none other than Yayao Kusama, of polka-dot fame.
