The deities of the crabs await their awakening.
YOROZU GANI is an NFT art series featuring the Kami (Japanese deities) of crabs. The word “YOROZU” means “ten thousand,” while “GANI” translates to “crabs.” In Japanese culture, it is believed that Kami reside in all things, from towering mountains to a single grain of rice. These countless deities are collectively known as the Yaoyorozu no Kami, meaning “Eight Million Deities.” Among them are the myriad Kami of crabs, whose forms are depicted in this series.
Crabs symbolize resilience and regeneration. In English, the word “cancer” refers both to the zodiac sign of the crab and the disease. This collection conveys a heartfelt wish for the Kami of crabs to bring healing and aid in the eradication of cancer, embodying hope and renewal.
I will donate 20% of all primary sales to cancer research institutions,
aiming to help reduce the impact of this disease.
