The Missing Post Office (Japanese: 漂流郵便局, Hyōryū Yūbinkyoku, "drifting post office")[1] is an artwork by Japanese artist Saya Kubota. It is a "post office" where undeliverable letters are collected, using the former Awashima Post Office building on Awashima Island in Mitoyo City, Kagawa Prefecture.
The Missing Post Office was created by Kubota as an installation for the Setouchi International Art Festival in 2013. It is not affiliated with Japan Post. Kubota serves as the "post office worker" of the Missing Post Office, and Katsuhisa Nakata, the former postmaster of the Awashima Post Office, as the "postmaster". The public are encouraged to send mail there, preferably on postcards. Its address is c/o Hyoryu Yubinkyoku 1317-2 Takumacho Awashima, Mitoyo Kagawa 769-1108 Japan.
