04 オランダからのデザイン

04 Designs from the Netherlands

When I wore this brooch to teach a class at university, a female student approached me and very genuinely said, "Teacher, that's so cute!"
This isn't really a "cute" item, so I was puzzled.
When I asked her, "What do you think this is?" she replied, "Huh? Isn't it scissors?"
Indeed, it does look like scissors. It would be nice if I could have a conversation like, "Ah, I see it looks like scissors. But actually, hee hee hee," but in this day and age of "harassment everywhere," there was no way I could say such a thing, so I just mumbled something and left.

Actually, this was given to me by a Dutch designer and is handmade.
I guess in the Netherlands and other Western countries, well, everywhere except Japan, they have this way of embracing and enjoying such sexual expressions, which is nice, isn't it?
You don't have to like it, but I don't think there's any need to hate it indiscriminately.
We creators often interact by exchanging our works.
What we create reflects us more honestly than anything else.
Since this was a gift, I'd be troubled if it were sold, so it's not for sale.
