This work was produced for an exhibition on the theme of "Ancient Times."
When the theme was decided to be "ancient times," the first thing that came to mind was "koro".
I tried to make its movement into the works.
It's convenient, isn't it, Koro?
I created this work with a sense of gratitude to those who invented it.

"KORO" in Japanese is a cylindrical tool that was laid under a heavy load to roll it and transport it in ancient times.
