THREE HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE_01

These characters represent the number three hundred sixty-five. A year is 365 days. I believe that life is to face oneself and just keep going step by step, diligently, day by day.

I assembled each line as if it were a stack of building blocks, so that the collection of black lines in white would have the greatest presence. I sought an absolute presence that would never waver.
