Ki no Kakera" is a wood carving of skeletons of the world's gods.
Gods are enshrined everywhere in the world, and there are many wishes of people throughout the ages.
By collecting such thoughts and pieces of wood and giving them shape, people create thoughts and meanings.
Considering these thoughts, I decided on the title of this work, "Ki no Kakera," which means a collection of feelings, a collection of trees, a collection of pieces of feelings, a piece of wood, and a piece of tree.
This work is about what God is essentially like, the skinned and fleshed-out form of God.
I created this work in the hope that people would rethink their beliefs, teachings, and their relationship with God.
