Buffer

Located in Sonoda, Okinawa City, Buffer is a small-scale art space featuring a compact 3m × 6m interior and exposed concrete walls. Functioning as a miniature hall for both music and visual arts, Buffer serves as a site for exhibitions, workshops, and lectures, aiming to foster creative experimentation and dialogue. The core of its activities lies in supporting the viewing, appreciation, and generation of diverse forms of expression—spanning art, performance, industry, and education. While these domains may seem disconnected at first glance, Buffer embraces them as media for human interaction, where their mutual influence gives rise to themes deeply connected to society.
