An indispensable ingredient in the lives of the people of Southeast Asia, the banana has also given rise to the proverb found throughout this area of tropical agruculture: “Under the banana leaf, everyone is equal.” This project still underway aims to place sculptures in the shape of banana leaves at a variety of locations. Made of glass, these banana-leaf sculptures are constructed at a workshiop for elementary school students. The work shown here, which hangs from the roof of Matsudai Station, blesses all who pass by.
