House of Light


What I want to introduce is "House of Light" in Japan.
James Turrell’s "House of Light"is a modern-built, traditional-style Japanese house where people can stay to experience light in a variety of specific conditions that the artist has arranged for, all centred around a sky-viewing room.

In the sky-viewing room, we can watch the sky lying on the Tatami and the sky is gradually turning from jet black, to black, to the darkest possible shade of blue, slowly, slowly brightening up into dawn…

I like his installation work which controls viewers’ perception of light and space.
Beautiful building and beatuiful sky make me happy!
