Introduction

Ishibashi is Rei Naito's 'Stone Garden' for Naoshima's Art House Project. In a small courtyard of white pebbles sits a single stone; light, material and emptiness form a minimal meditative space echoing the 'less is more' spirit of Japanese karesansui. Visitors remove shoes and enter in silence to feel the room breathe.
