KAORU HIRANO
I dismantle, down to a single thread, the thing that I wore, the clothes that I obtained from a person. We are wrapped in a veil of cloth from when we are born to when we die. That cloth is always present and its movement is nearest to the skin (a border) and, just like a skin, it's also always exposed to someone's eyes. In short at first we can live as a person by wearing clothes.
