Valley Gallery Naoshima
The Valley Gallery consists of a small building resembling a shrine and its surrounding outdoor space. Located along a valley, which symbolizes a boundary or sanctuary, the double-walled interior creates an introspective atmosphere while remaining open to the semi-outdoors. This allows visitors to experience natural elements like light and wind directly.
