Is this performance art? What is the material used in the flags piece? What compels yanagi to do sociopolitical work?
love the idea of regarding animals and insects as our equal and going one step further to actually collaborate with another lifeform. Liked the childhood storey about feeding moths money so they would incorporate it into their cocoons. i see that he was strongly influenced by his experiences with nature as a child. I too have this bond ass do select others who i feel bring a diverse aspect to the art world. He seems to have drawn parallels between the natural world an society causing him to catch nuances others miss. this seems to be the reasson behind his work exploring borders between peolple and how those can be altered. also refreshing and very buddhist for him to let theant lead the dynamic of the art. his incorporation of actual animals in his work seems to embody a sense of letting things be instead of trying to dominate and control nature.
