Concept

In Tohoku district, they have a form of prayer

The form of prayer, fragile but strong, which accepts even disasters that have struck repeatedly,

hopes the serenity, and creates the future

Here it is; the large form of prayer that has been created since 2016,

now, after having acted as Yorishiro with the various backgrounds such as;

Tohoku, São Paulo, Rio and Tokyo.

With help of the sign remaining in the figure,

Prayers of each are piled up in layer

Thinking of someone in somewhere else,

try to connect another landscape of somewhere else,

even with despair or riptide

We pray to wish to meet things that are invisible but exist,

beyond ages and places.
