About the artwork

Awafuku and Komefuku (a Cinderella story) is astory which changes somewhat as it is retold by people and becomes defferent stories. However, there is a miraculous link in that people were telling similar stories throughout the world. Is there something latent in us “left there”? How many tales do we have left there within us? There are the stories we read in children’s books, stories which people told us, the stories in films. I could include too the slightly misinerpreted stories, made up stories, and stories that resemble other stories. Why, the memories of our own happenings and deeds might become a story too!We are each one of the many main characters, at the same time, one of the insignificant minor characters, in that story, Maybe that “something” left in us is the way of acting out the leading and minor roles.
