Naoshima Island

We just got back from an overnight visit to Naoshima Island--a Japanese island in the inland sea just off the coast of the Okayama Prefecture. In addition to being very beautiful, there are world-class art museums that house a well-curated selection of modern art, and which are architecturally significant structures in their own right. Photos of the art in the museums isn't permitted, but we did photograph the outdoor sculpture and art installations. FYI, the yellow pumpkin is a bit of a celebrity on the island, as you will see....
