Artist：Koichi Kurita（Japan）
Title：Noto is kind, even its soil
作品プラン
在原出租车会社营业所的二楼，艺术家以奥能登的土为主题进行展出。这是一位以珠洲的土为契机而开始创作的艺术家。已经采集过众多土壤的艺术家说这里的土是彩虹色。将各处采集到的泥土置于地图上，突显奥能登、珠洲所拥有的土壤颜色。
A work about the soil of Oku-Noto is presented on the second floor of former taxi company’s office. The soil of Suzu inspired Kurita’s creation. Having collected many samples of earth, he remarks that its colors are a rainbow. Putting soil from various places on a map, he brings the subterranean colors of Oku-Noto and Suzu to light.

Born in Yamanashi in 1962. Since 1986 he has traveled to Asia, Africa and Central-South America. From around 1990, he has noticed the beauty of the soil under his feet and began collecting soil from all over the Japanese archipelago. By 2017, he had completed his collection in all municipalities. Since 2004, he has been collecting soil and exhibiting his works in France. The basis of his expression is to bring out the fun of "the diversity of the world" through his perspective of soil.
