Marumaru Wind Chime

Makoto Koizumi for Nousaku

• Introduction

  I am a Marumaru Wind Chime. Just going where the wind blows.

   

   

• Curator's Notes 

   

  This wind chime is a thoughtful reimagining of the Japanese chimes that are often found at temples. Traditionally, the paper slip would have a prayer written on it, but we think the slips look beautiful blank as well! Watching the creamy length of paper dance in the wind is an act of meditation, and the golden orb of brass sings with a beautiful chiming tone.

   

  Marumaru Wind Chime was curated by Angélique Chmielewski
