Rope has long held a significant place in Japanese culture, embodying symbolic, ritualistic, and utilitarian meanings throughout history. In modern times, it has evolved into a medium for visual and performance art, spanning photography, film, and live expression. Beyond the physical act of tying, rope can represent a profound emotional exchange between two people—using rope as the medium for connection.
