Haunting doll installations revive an abandoned mountain village amid autumnal scenery.
In Nagoro, a remote village facing depopulation, life-sized dolls occupy abandoned spaces, breathing new life into the once-vibrant community. Amid autumnal scenery, a doll sits contemplatively, symbolizing the villages resilience and the artists creative revival through these haunting yet whimsical installations.

Orange drum resounds,
Shadows dance on glass and wood,
Old meets new at dusk.
オレンジの太鼓、
ガラスと木に影が踊る、
夕暮れに古と新が出会う。

Blue haze softly glows,
Stone paths bind past with future—
Time whispers in night.
青い霞が優しく輝く、
石畳が過去と未来を結ぶ—
時間は夜に囁く。

Moss-clad gate whispers,
Where sunlit streams softly dance,
Nature’s shrine unfolds.
苔むす門、
木漏れ日の小川、
自然の社。

Modern white and blue,
Reflects on ancient timber,
Past meets the future.
モダンな白と青が、
古い木材に映り込む、
過去が未来に出会う。

Golden walls whisper,
Among emerald whispers;
Where sky meets old dreams.

黄金の壁、
エメラルドの囁き;

Gray sky, rain-kissed tiles,
Orange roofs glow through the mist—
Green life clings to rail.

White snow whispers past,
Gray corridors hold secrets,
Number three stands still.

白雪がささやく、
灰色の回廊は秘密を抱く、
数字の三が静かに佇む。

Emerald hills call,
Beneath the boundless blue skies,
A lone horse wanders.
エメラルドの丘が呼ぶ
果てしない青い空の下
一頭の馬が歩く
