Jun Iida live in Bainbridge Island

Experience Jun Iida live on October 16th

Jun Iida will perform at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art on October 16, 2026. Iida is a Japanese-born, Seattle-based composer and multi-instrumentalist known for his unique blend of acoustic and electronic elements. His music often incorporates prepared piano – modifying the instrument with objects to alter its sound – alongside looping techniques, field recordings, and subtle electronic processing. Critics frequently describe his work as atmospheric, meditative, and evocative, drawing connections to minimalist composers like Erik Satie while maintaining a distinctly contemporary sensibility. He has released several albums and frequently collaborates with artists across various disciplines.

The Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA) opened in 2013 and serves as a cultural hub for the island community and the wider Puget Sound region. The museum building itself is notable for its sustainable design, incorporating features like rainwater harvesting and natural lighting. BIMA focuses on contemporary Northwest art, with exhibitions showcasing painting, sculpture, photography, new media, and installation art. It aims to be accessible and inclusive, offering educational programs alongside its exhibitions. The museum’s collection emphasizes regional artists and reflects the unique environment of the Pacific Northwest.
