Outline of the exhibition |
Since ancient times, Japanese people have thought that God dwells in various things such as land, trees, and architecture, and have been praying for safety by offering "prayers" when adding people's hands to them. Various ceremonies will be held during construction work from ground-breaking ceremony to completion ceremony. There is still a rich relationship between nature and architecture, which is being lost in modern society. What kind of prayer did the Japanese put into the architectural ceremony and shaped it? We will read the meaning from the remaining literature painting materials and ritual tools.

"Technique and Mind" Seminar
[80] Architectural rituals and bansho scrolls in the Oku Aizu region
When building a house in the deep Oku Aizu region of Fukushima Prefecture, unique architectural rituals such as Ishikiri, the god of Hibushi, and the enclosure were held. In addition, the local guard (carpenter) will be apprenticed to the teacher, and if it is recognized as one person, he will be taught a scroll. The teaching of scrolls continued from the 18th century to the present day. The scroll contains the history of carpentry tools, main deity, and curse songs that are chanted there, depending on the ritual. In this seminar, we will introduce the architectural rituals and bansho scrolls in the Oku Aizu region.
