kurukuru

SO! You ask... What the heck is kurukuru kamishibai?

It's an adaptation of traditional Japanese storytelling.

Where traditionally you have a box and a number of picture cards you use as you tell the story,

kurukuru (spinspin) kami (paper) shibai (performance) uses a long roll of paper and a box with handles that you turn to advance the paper. I've made 4 stories so far and I plan to show off a new one at the show starting on Wednesday.

The ones I'm making are mini-sized for the smaller boxes.

To get to the gallery, just get out Takeshita exit in Harajuku, cross the street , turn left and go up the hill. The gallery is on the right.
