What this is

Mika Ninagawa with EiM × Dogo Onsen DOGO ART is a contemporary art installation at one of Japan's most ancient hot spring resorts. Photographer and film director Mika Ninagawa, known for her vivid, saturated imagery of flowers and goldfish, collaborates with fashion brand EiM to transform the historic Dogo Onsen area into an immersive art experience. The project merges Ninagawa's signature aesthetic with the 3,000-year-old bathing culture of Dogo, creating a dialogue between modern visual art and traditional onsen heritage. This installation is part of the ongoing DOGO ART series that invites contemporary artists to reinterpret this culturally significant space.

The installation appeals to those seeking Instagram-worthy moments alongside genuine cultural immersion.
