Abstract
This paper shows one of perspectives to discuss the future of Hansen's Disease Sufferers and sanatoriums, researching several activities in National Sanatorium Oshimaseishoen through Setouchi International Art Festival 2010. In order to show them, I focus on what kinds of social relationships were formed between Hansen's Disease Sufferers and the Others. Especially, I refer to the mediators who formed new relationships from inside and outside Oshimaseishoen through the activities in the international art festival. Finally, I demonstrate the possibility that the memories and records about Hansen's Disease Sufferers and sanatoriums are inherited by these mediators' activities.
