When violence was still in our hands, our hands were also inscribed with many lukewarm and horrific memories. Over time, the hands have been linked to many devices that have stolen their memories and placed them under another kind of violence in the name of peace. The hands still resist. The thousand hands of the thousand-armed Avalokitesvara represent the memory of the stolen hands.
暴力がまだこの手にあったころ、手には生暖かい、あまたのおぞましい記憶も刻まれた。それから時を経て、手は多くののデバイスにつながれて記憶を奪いとられ、平和という名の別の暴力のもとにある。手はなおもあらがう。千手観音の千の手は奪われた手の記憶を示している。
