What is “Japan’s largest trick art exhibition in Nagashima Spaland”?

The best part about it is that you can look at it, put it in the work, take pictures freely, and have fun!

Detailed information such as event period, access, and fees

When you look at a work, you may wonder, ``How do you take a picture?'' However, there are reference examples next to the work, so it might be a good idea to try and imitate them. Also, if you take a photo from the position of the "camera mark" drawn on the floor, you can take a more three-dimensional photo.

Of course, you don't have to take the same photos!
The real thrill of trick art is that even a single piece of art can look different if you change the viewing position or angle.
Be sure to take some original photos!

Now, we would like to introduce some of the photos we have taken!

Introducing some of the mysterious trick art! Tips for shooting too!

This is the first work that catches your eye as you walk through the entrance.
​`` Last Train'' is a modern arrangement of Van Gogh's original work.

Do you see him sitting next to Old Man Tanguy reading the newspaper? Actually, I'm doing an air chair!
If you want to avoid muscle soreness the next day, we recommend taking a quick photo once you've decided on a pose!

The work on the left is `` Dreaming for the day it sells''.
Van Gogh painted the famous "Sunflowers". You can draw that work together!

The work on the right is `` Van Gogh's Sunflowers Grew Up''.
The “Sunflower” I drew with Van Gogh earlier is popping out of the frame!

These two works are also arrangements of Van Gogh's original works.

You can ride a shooting star through the fantastic work ``Starry Night'' and take a photo with Van Gogh's doctor, Gachet! Trick art allows you to take such humorous photos.

From Van Gogh's Pipe! is a humorous take on Van Gogh's original work, ``Self-portrait with bandages and a pipe in his mouth.'' ? "is.

This work is different from the ones I have introduced so far, and is completed by rotating the photo 90 degrees after taking the photo!
For this reason, the person taking the photo should give directions such as the direction of the face and the position of the hands while imagining the subject turning 90 degrees.

This is a great place to show off your teamwork! We also had a lot of fun while taking this photo!

The work on the left is ``Monet's Garden at Vetheuil''.
In front of the picture is a panel with a picture frame drawn on it, and by going behind the panel and taking a photo, you can take a picture that makes you feel like you are inside the picture frame.

The work on the right is an original work by S.D., ``Bottle Terrarium.''
Sit on the floor and strike a pose. I highly recommend it because you can easily take photos that look like they are actually in the bottle!

Be careful as the Moai statues will fall down! ! Anyone can become super strong! ?

This is S.D.'s original work, "Moai's Domino Toppling."
By the way, the Moai statues on Easter Island are said to be 4 to 5 meters high, with the largest ones measuring over 20 meters.

This is S.D.'s original work "Giant Slalom on a Skateboard." Please try your best!

By the way, how do you think this photo was taken?
This picture is “trick” art! ! I'm introducing the behind the scenes of the shoot on my Instagram, so please check it out from the link below!

There were also some pieces that faced the floor, like this one!
It's amazing how the light and shadow make it look like it's about to fall.

The title of the work is "Real Puzzle Game".
Can you survive this survival game?

The last room I would like to introduce is the Mirror Room.

When you enter the room, it looks like there is a large mirror, but in reality there is a symmetrical space, so it was an illusion!
Indeed, the numbers on the clock and the pictures on the walls are symmetrical.
I also took a video of this, so please check it out as well!

Impressions after going to “Japan’s largest trick art exhibition in Nagashima Spaland ”♪

This is an introduction to some of the photos we took!

When I actually experienced it myself, it was more fun and exciting than I imagined!
In addition, there were works that were rotated 90 degrees that required mental and physical strength, making it difficult to imagine the final pose, or making me sit up and get muscle pain the next day.

The impression changes depending on the viewing angle, and you can step into the picture!
Since there are no right answers, everyone can use their imagination and share their opinions, which is sure to be fun for both children and adults.

Please come and enjoy the mysterious world of art by looking at it, touching it, and taking pictures.
