The theme for 2022 is \u201cSensory Behaviour\u201d.

The \u201cSense Island\u201d is a unique art festival organised on the uninhabited island of Sarushima, in Yokosuka city, Japan.

This was a one-of-a-kind art festival embracing nature, time, and the senses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visitors were asked to turn off their mobile phones and engage with the island\u2019s wildlife and artworks in the dark, with their minds sharply focused on their surroundings.

The art festival was first held in autumn 2019, postponed in 2020 due to the Corona virus, and then held in winter 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"sense-island-art-festival\nHow<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

By eliminating technology and our sense of time, the artworks and immersive experiences in nature on Sarushima Island encourage introspection and rediscovery of all our senses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on the \u201cSense Island\u201d  concept, this year\u2019s works and performances will develop the theme of \u201cSensory Behaviour\u201d designed to stimulate the visitor\u2019s senses to the maximum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, we will introduce the artwork and projects both on Sarushima island and in the town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
