PLANET SNOW AquariumPLANET SNOW: Aquarium

AOAO SAPPORO’s “Nature Aquarium”, which incorporates the beauty of ecosystems and nature, was a source of inspiration for ENESS’s “IWAGUMI Air Scape”. Here, visitors will be able to engage with life within water, and reflect on nature and its cycles.

In addition to the aquarium’s regular exhibitions, a work from ENESS will also make a special appearance.AOAO SAPPORO’s “Nature Aquarium”, which incorporates the beauty of ecosystems and nature, was a source of inspiration for ENESS’s “IWAGUMI Air Scape”.

Located in the heart of Sapporo within the moyuk SAPPORO commercial complex in the Tanukikoji area, the urban aquarium AOAO SAPPORO has been newly added as a venue for サイアフ2027.

A highlight of the facility is the Nature Aquarium created by ADA SUIKEI Creators. Here, an iwagumi stone arrangement aquascape layout creates a scene that appears like a landscape painting. This approach serves as inspiration for ENESS’s “IWAGUMI Air Scape,” which will be presented at the Sapporo Snow Festival Odori Site. Building on this connection, a special program centered on the aquarium’s permanent exhibition that links the aquarium with the art festival will be held.Located in the heart of Sapporo within the moyuk SAPPORO commercial complex in the Tanukikoji area, the urban aquarium AOAO SAPPORO has been newly added as a venue for SIAF2027.
