When joining the cylindrical parts together, they form something that resembles a missile or other kind of destructive weapon. Made of paper and sliced like kintaro candy, the sculpture disassembles the function, and softens the image of a missile. While ridiculing destructive weaponry, the work makes at once reference to a society in which all things are being assimilated and equalized.

円柱パーツを連結させるとミサイルのような破壊兵器を連想させる形となる。金太郎飴のようにスライスされた紙製の彫刻。ミサイルの形態を分解、軟素材で本来のイメージを脱力化させ破壊兵器を茶化すと同時に、全てが均一化し同化した社会に言及する作品。
