My artwork often starts with quotation from someone or something.
These works with yarn started when I listened to the CD "SATOKO".

Ms. Satoko Sakamoto was a victim of the Aum Shinrikyo religious society. Before the Sarin Case in Tokyo, her husband Mr. Tsutsumi Sakamoto, the lawyer, would bring a suit against the Aum to take back children or believers from it. The leaders of the Aum ploted Mr, Sakamoto's kill and broke into Sakamotos, killing him, Ms. Satoko and one-year-old child Takaaki. The real facts of the case came out 6 years later after their death.
Ms. Satoko Sakamoto left short poem which she wrote when she was a college student. Her friends wrote music for it and recorded it on CD "SATOKO".
The poem says like this--

Tie red yarn with orange one
And orange one with Yellow one
Yellow one with blue one
I'd like to tie hearts of people living in this town together

I wanted to see the scene like this and started to make works with yarn..
