“Where is here ?” “Kokohadoko?”
I take that question as a guide, using doors and Movies to eliminate many different ‘heres.’
Yet there is nothing on the other side of those doors. And, before our eyes, appears ‘here.’
Presenting a restricted space, I want to simultaneously express the fact that a limitless space is hidden within.
