Experience the blue sky and sea at the Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Modern Art, Hayama

I've been to Hayama many times, but this time I had a wonderful encounter. It was the Hayama branch of the Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Modern Art, which celebrated its 15th anniversary this year. What an open and wonderful space!
This is an art museum where you can experience art while feeling the blue sky and blue sea.

This time, there was an exhibition of Aalto, a Finnish architect who is celebrating his 120th birthday. We enjoyed his works in a space with high ceilings and plenty of sunlight.
Such a comfortable chair! I feel like I want to sit in it forever.
By watching and feeling, I was able to experience Nordic culture with all five senses.

There are works by Isamu Noguchi at the entrance to the museum, and the open air is very comfortable. You can feel refreshed by breathing in the fresh air. The weather was also great, so I enjoyed the vacation feeling while looking at the sea.

When I look at photos of Aalto, I notice his big, thick hands. I think he would have made a great sound if he played the piano!
The sound of a piano changes depending on the space it is placed in. The building also changes the performer's mood and the sound of the instrument, so I was reminded once again how important buildings and spaces are.

The sea in Hayama was also sparkling.
