<Chisanchisho no Kai*Comments>
I think that Hanno is protected and loved even though he is scolded by the spirit of the forest, who accompanies him.We must remember our original sense of life, our inherent poetic sensibility that we exist without any difference or discrimination from natural objects such as trees, animals, and insects, and have a rich, unbiased and free imagination. I made it with the friends of the local production local production meeting with the wish that I can have it.
There are two types of noses attached to the approach trees (the guardian deity of the trees). The highlight is that there is no face.The eyes and mouth are made from local thinned wood and twigs.I would appreciate it if you could feel the suspicious guardian deities and the birds on the twig together with the fog and the surrounding environment.
