Title:Peace
Year:2024
Media: Wool Fiber,Bamboo Basket
Dimension:30 round x 16cH (cm)
Description
"Peace" was created after I saw a cat sleeping in a basket in front of a showcase of a store in the past.In Japan, sleeping cats are considered a symbol of peace, and a sculpture of one is displayed on the gate of Toshogu Shrine, where Tokugawa Ieyasu, who established the longest-lasting over 250 years peace during the samurai government, rests.How precious peace is is clear when you look at the state of areas hit by war. It is also clear that conflicts and wars cannot be easily ended once they have begun, as is clear when you look at Gaza and Ukraine, and the US, Israel and Iran, which are still not able to finish today. I put my prayer for peace into the sleeping cat.
