Research Abstract |
In traditional Urban Festivals, symbols such as hikiyama and mikoshi are the central objects of presentations. However, streets and the structures on the street sides are also specially presented for the festival rites at the same time. In many cases, distinctive spatial features of the city are well-utilized for the presentation. This research focuses on the spatial presentations for a special day, mainly at Machiya during festival rites and aims to investigate the current situation in detail, revealing how these Machiya and their streets are utilized for the presentations during the festival rites and how these presentations affect the spatial formations of Machiya and their streets. The research subject is urban festivals which are held in various cities in the Western part of Japan. First of all, urban festivals in various cities were explored as much as possible and the street utilization were investigated. As a result, we found many common elements with the Kyoto Gion Festival we investigated before by this research group. Other than the religious symbol, facades along the streets are decorated with curtains and lanterns and the front sides of the chambers facing the streets are left open and decorated with the folding screens, creating integrated presentations with the streets. Among the exploration subjects, eight distinctive districtsare researched further in details. Other than the district level research such as the structure classification and distributive research on the presentation elements such as decorative curtains., structure level research such as the survey on the omaments used at Machiya and clubhouses were conducted. As a result, we found that the spatial presentation for festival rites influences Machiya and their street.
