Permanent event
At Paramita Museum
Media: Sculpture

Focusing on the concept of nature, Makio Yamaguchi created a boat-shaped sculpture titled "In Stone" and placed it in a traditional Japanese garden. By imitating and harmonizing with nature, Yamaguchi created this work as his coffin. The granite surfaced is painted with red ochre and the sculpture has a quiet but powerful presence. Seven of Yamaguchi's works, including one that received the Nakahara Teijirou award in 1983, are exhibited around the museum buildings.
