Yusuke Nishimura
An ekobashira is a square-shaped pagoda that is erected in front of the main hall of Zenkoji Temple in Nagano, Japan, on the occasion of the gokaicho (opening of the main sanctuary to the public) of the Maedachi Honzon, and is believed to have spiritual powers when touched. In 2022, Nishimura exhibited Echo Works inspired by this stupa, at Kan’ei-ji Temple for the "Tokyo Biennale 2023 Beginning Exhibition." This year, Nishimura will create a revolving round ekobashira at the temple.
