Artist's Message
KOUNO FumiyoHello.
The first time I rode the Astram Line was on a rare snowy morning in Hiroshima. Looking at the beauty of the view from the train window, I really thought, "I'm glad we have a train like this."
This time, I am very honored to have this stained glass installed at Hondori Station, the starting point of the Astram Line.
In the comic book "Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms." I depict people who try to lead hearty and humane lives in Hiroshima. Many people said to me, "I remembered people I knew who were bombed."
Hondori is full of memories and longing for my family and friends from a bygone age.
This is a developing and changing city, but now my old friend is always waiting for me here.
I hope you think so, too.
