It's new! Nishi Ward Tekuteku Sketch: 70th Yoyo Square

From Sakuragicho Station, take the Minato Mirai 21 side, take the Moving Walkway, pass through the Landmark Plaza, and you will find Yoyo Square between Queen's Square Yokohama. A part of the fashionable Grand Mall Park where you can go to Yokohama Museum of Art and other places. A large number of families, shoppers and office workers come and go.
Why is it called Yoyo Square? Completed in 1994 (Heisei 6) by Hisayuki Mogami, a sculptor located in the square, named after the huge 17-meter-high stainless steel sculpture "Mokumoku Waku Waku Yokohama Yoyo". Was done. Mokumoku is a cloud, and yo-yo is a distant ocean. The Western Ocean is perfect for the place name of Minato Mirai.
The sculptures with curves are very interesting in the surrounding straight buildings. It looks like a roller coaster or bone.　
The sketches of the sculpture overlapped, and I struggled because I couldn't understand what was going on. Sculpture also plays a fine role in preventing the building style.
