- Concept -

Generally, the word “simple” is used for cutting down and scraping things off. For example, it is like dry flowers… The lively beauty of the flowers is still there with all the memories infiltrated, and yet,the existences of the flowers are carcasses. They are not “dead flowers”, but they are “flowers that will never wither". For example, pack of wild animals that are well honed to survive.There are no leaders that decide their directions, but rather the pack changes its direction by one of them with no individuality suddenly sense something and moving towards another direction. It is the moment when that first one begins its movement in search for something, and flowing into that direction.
