Artist's statement

4. 5 billion years ago, before the moon was born
everything that was able to move could have life without
having breath, but was heartless and without a spirit.

They had never been to heaven, never left the earth and
never been born.

The rain had stopped after hundreds of years before the ocean
had appeared and from the horizon the moon rose from
the watery abyss.

One must have a heart to be given a hand.

Ooka Ueno, 2009
