When we face an empty space, we feel unknown emotions and tension.
With only empty and silence alone, space brings out stories and sounds of lingering imagery.
Listening to the sound of silence and being invisible. Not being seen and touched, “aesthetics of absence” can be said to be valuable and beautiful.

[Monoha]
: By leaving things as they are, we can approach the relationships of the things, space, location, situation, etc.

Our role in dealing with space, as in the name of Monoha, focused on placement in space and their relationship, not on decorative techniques or significance. Large boxes placed in spaces change the relationship and become a poetic language as a single object by attaching wheels to give mobility. Relationships arise and the air in the absence expands. The domain of absence becomes another language and meets the existence of ‘none’.
