To follow up with our post from earlier this week on the Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennial in Japan, we're taking a closer look at one of the permanent art installations, Potemkin, a 'park for post-industrial meditation' by Finnish architecture firm Casagrande & Rintala. 

This space was designed and built to celebrate traditional knowledge and encourage a connection with the environment and was created of all recycled and repurposed materials.  Visit this link for more images and information on this beautiful interpretation of traditional Japan.
