Description

Description

“These happy and innocent people are together spelling the word “WAR”. They are unaware of the meaning of their actions. Each letter individual lacks meaning, but when gathered together to create a word, a new concept is formed.”

– Akio Takamori –

* The background chine collé element is an actual page from an antique woodcut song book of chants or librettos for a Japanese NOH play published in 1919.
