100 colors compressed into a miniscule space of 3.3 m2 (one tsubo). A new work in Emmanuelle's "100 colors" series allows one to enjoy their own colorful space by lying down beneath 100 thin and delicate colors, swaying in the wind.
The space of 3.3m2 (one tsubo) is standing alone in Zojo-ji Temple with Tokyo Tower in the background. Colors appear like a condensed colorful volume when one look from far away and it gradually appear as a soft stream of colors as one approach. The sound 100 colors of thin papers gently rub against each other is heard when sitting on the rim (engawa) of the structure. When one lies on tatami mat and look up at the top, 100 colors of sky is fluttering along with the wind
