Hiromi Sato and PINMY Club members do pink walking.
You can enjoy walking along the street with pink costume made by Hiromi Sato as you enjoy the color, form and touch of pink. The power of pinkcolor activates your hormones and makes you feel fine. It is very nice to have pink communication with people going along the street. You and I will walk through the Troll Forest.

It is not unavoidable
The aerial view of the Tour de France is beautiful
We have time there
In Tour de Zempukuji Park
Strewn with contemporary art
Time forming from the works’ gravitation
Everyone murmurs
Toward the cosmos we pretend to see
It is not unavoidable
The alien was cute
Because I’m not a good speaker
