Commentary
Cats gather from all around to see floating in the night sky, not a crescent moon, but a "nekozume" (cat's claw). This work was created based on the experience of the creator who travelled with volunteers to feed cats and dogs left behind in areas evacuated due to the nuclear power plant disaster.
