The following text and images are taken
from 4+1 PETER SALTER: Building Projects, published by
Black Dog Publishing, revisiting a previous feature on this site,
the Inami Woodcarving Museum by Peter Salter.
The Museum primarily accommodates fretted
transom screens and religious sculptural pieces. At times there
are temporary exhibitions of wood sculpture, associated with
the annual International Sculpture Exhibition held in Inami.
The permanent exhibits are devotional objects that were originally
placed within a domestic context. In the Museum these artifacts
are relocated in a similar relationship to the viewer and their
surroundings through a series of small-scale enclosures within
the larger building fabric. The Museum attempts to identify the
objects with their surroundings, rather than exhibit them in
a neutral space. |
