「綿毛で風に乗ったり,とげで動物の体に付着したり,
あるいは自らはじけ飛んだりするなど,
植物の種子には,遠くへ行くためのしかけが施されている.
一方切手は,郵便物を遠くへ運ぶことができることから
種子を切手に封入すれば,
自然の力で飛ぶよりもはるか遠くまで飛ばしてあげられると思い,
種子入り切手を制作した.
専用のポストカードに実際にこの切手を貼り,国内外の知人,
美術関係者に郵送もしている.

THE BARBERSHOP
"We work in a barbershop in Dojunkai. It is the last customer's service here. The district will be replaced by a shopping center soon. This barbershop was never really a meeting point for the people in this area. People find it fashionable to come here. So the barbershop profits from the atmosphere of this abandoned place." Employees of a barbershop, Tokyo 1996.

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
"Dojunkai, one of the last social housing areas in the center of Tokyo will be replaced by a shopping complex by the end of this year. Although all inhabitants already moved out, we discovered lights in some windows during a night walk. An old woman lives here, since the very beginning. She wants to keep the neighbourhood 'alive' and refuses to move away until she dies."
