| 鵠 (Kugui) |
Mioko was born in a small house of a puppet master in
Kyoto(京都市) back in the beginning of XX century. She was tiny
little girl with long ebony hair and wore a blood red kimono (着物)
One day master made her a wagasa (和傘)1 and since
that day she has never parted
with it.
Mioko was
spending her days by traveling around shelves, full of books, albums and other
toys and puppets. Sometimes she was sitting on the master’s desk and watching
him work.
She was his
favorite one. His masterpiece. He has declined a hundreds offers for selling
her. Even if Emperor himself asked puppet master to sell her, he would refuse
him too.
Mioko also
didn’t want to leave her house. And she was very upset every time, when another
one child tearfully asked its mother to buy Mioko. Why doesn’t anybody ask
about her opinion? What about her feelings? Her heart and soul? It was so
unfair…
Mioko is a
doll, which consider herself as a human. And she began her difficult path to prove
it…
P.S. Special
thanks to 京, Sukekiyo and Dir En Grey for
inspiration.
Work 鵠 (Kugui) is an illustration for Sukekiyo song with the same name.
