Title of work Giant Peace Crane
Client Tam Tam festival Leiden, The Netherlands
Date of work 2009
Medium Paper, ink
Dimensions 60cmx60cm

I was invited to lead Giant Peace Crane workshop during the Tam Tam festival in Leiden, The Netherlands 2009.
The workshop was held at a Day care centre called Rondedans and all participants were over 60 years old.
They were asked to write their wishes on the paper and then to make an origami peace crane from the paper we then launched the cranes into the canal nearby.

It was a part of the celebration of the 400th Anniversary of Dutch and Japanese relations.
