Travelling Shinshu with Chihiro

Shinshu, known today as Nagano Prefecture, was Chihiro’s spiritual home. It was her parents’ hometown and where she was when the war ended. In this exhibition we will focus on Chihiro’s close relationship with Shinshu through works featuring the nature and natural features of Shinshu, including sketches of Matsukawa-village, Azumino and the Otari hot springs, as well as the picture book she created at a mountain villa in Kurohime plateau, presented along with various related reference materials.
