“oar review” is a series originally published on the website of oar press, a publisher primarily dedicated to producing art books in close collaboration with artists. Texts with each contributor’s own practice and methodology—together with new writings—are now being presented in printed form. This third volume compiles “in between” by Seiko Hihara, serialized from July 2022 to June 2023, written between her stay in the Czech Republic and her return to Japan. Hihara has pursued a practice attentive to “communal, act” through sewing and dialogue. Boundaries that ought not to exist have slipped, in every era, into society and daily life. A trail of introspection and prayer, woven from passing words and gathered wishes. – Design: Daisuke Kano Cooperation: Yuma Wada Printing: Graphic Cooperation, Neutral Colors
