A site-specific installation in an abandoned temple in Kanazawa, Japan. Filled with memories and abandoned purposes, the temple’s hollow shell gave rise to the creation of a series of hollow forms along with objects for seemingly metaphysical purposes. Forming calligraphic screens, tarred and knotted ropes referenced various human activities.
