Five elevated sofas sit on top of a hill in Hidemi Nishida’s installation on Mt. Rokko in Kobe, Japan. Visitors can walk up the ladders and sit down in a perch to experience a sensation similar to that of sitting in the sky. I would kill for a view like that from my sofa. It’s like a Tatzu Nishi living room turned inside out.

This post is part of a short series highlighting artists participating in the outdoor Rokko Meets Art festival going on through Nov 24.
