Hiroshi Teshigahara

The inaugural event of this centennial project is the exhibition SA NI HA | さには, held in Isamu Noguchi’s iconic Heaven (Tengoku) garden at the Sogetsu Plaza. This exhibition traces the essence of Teshigahara’s sculptural imagination through the twin lenses of ikebana and ceramics.

Presented in poetic dialogue with Isamu Noguchi’s stone garden, this deeply immersive installation brings together Teshigahara’s ceramic works and his handwritten calligraphy on Echizen washi paper. These elements converge to create a space where nature and artifice, stillness and motion, material and spirit intermingle.

The title SA NI HA refers to a sacred garden purified for welcoming the divine—a concept that resonates deeply with this exhibition. Visitors are invited to listen closely to the quiet presence of Teshigahara’s spirit, attuned to the subtle, wordless sensations that permeate the space.
