Steles exist all over the world. Many steles from recent years to those erected before BC still exist. The existence of steles to preserve events originating from the land and the achievements of great people for future generations can be said to be the product of people’s strong will to leave/leave it.'' Due to their physical strength of being made of stone, they arestrong steles” so to speak.
“Weak steles” describes events that the author has seen and heard recently, notes he has written, poems, calendar plans, and SNS messages he has sent to someone. He carves events that will naturally fade away from memory over time into the fragile material of clay. Without being fired, the Weak Monument remains fragile in a wooden box and left for the future (I wonder).

《Clay left outdoors for 520 days》

Unfired clay, concrete block

For about a year and a half, the clay was left outdoors and observed how it changed due to wind, rain, humidity, and dryness. This is what happens if you don’t keep the 《Weak steles》 as well.
