국제눈조각콩쿠르

국제눈조각콩쿠르란?

1974년(제25회)부터 시작된 국제눈조각콩쿠르는 세계 각 지역의 나라·지역·도시로부터 참가한 팀이 직접 제작한 설상 작품의 우열을 겨루는 콩쿠르입니다.
국제 컬러 풍부한 개성 넘치는 설상은 눈축제 기간에 제작되며 오도리 행사장에서 유일하게 설상 제작 풍경을 가까이서 볼 수 있는 매우 인기가 있는 행사입니다.

      THE HOME

    This year our work is dedicated to the memory of Chiune Sugihara. Consul of Japan, 1939-1940 who resided in Kaunas, Lithuania, during WWII. Risking his life, he saved thousands of people from the Holocaust and gave them "visas for life". HOME was chosen as the image to represent the idea. Home is the physical and spiritual definition. Home is a symbol of life. Sometimes Home is a steaming cup of matcha tea on the table. Sometimes Home is the opened door for returnees; or Hachikō, dog ready to wait for all the eternity; or maybe the given visa, the ticket for life, despite terrible circumstances, still an opportunity to have THE HOME...

      Mother Nature

    Mother Nature snow sculpture was inspired by the writing in the ancient book about the Mongolians coming all the way through the oceans till the three rivers beginning, to settle at the Burkhan Khaldum mountain. They respect the sky as the father, the nature as the mother. So, the mother nature was shown in the form of a woman, as well as the Mongolian historical vision of mountains, rivers, sun and the moon was expressed. On the other side of the sculpture , the good relations between the two countries was shown. The mountain and the cloud is representing Mongolia, while the sun is the representing of Japan.

      CHOPIN COMPETITION

    The inspiration for the resulting spatial form, literally referring to piano fragments, was the search for Polish-Japanese relationships. A common element between our nations is admiration for the works of Fryderyk Chopin. Sculpture "Chopin Cometition" combines music with sculpture and our nations into an inseparable whole, whose common denominator is the universality of art.
