In this summer, we found cicada's shells on the tree and Toy capsules( plastic cases) in the trash bin.

We thought it's so beautiful when we find the empty plastic case.
We were impressed by a delicate figure of the cast-off cicada's shell when we picked up.
We were so exited like we found a treasure.
We were struck by them and started collecting.

they have emptiness which we can put our imagination in it.
And also there is a feeling of something which is used to be in it before.

Then, we dedicated ourselves to picking up “HIROIMONO” in this summer.
