I am making a black three-legged sculpture with the name "Trickster". They are like youkai, and although they are around us, they cannot be seen or hide in the darkness. I think it is my job as a sculptor to give shape to them and make them visible.

I make black three-legged sculpture called “Trickster”. They are like Youkai. They are around us, but we can't see them. Or they are hiding in the dark ness. My job is to give them a body and make them visible.
