A rendition of the "Choju Giga" (A Scroll of Frolicking Animals) of the "Emaki" artform. The original is in Kyoto Kozanji.

This artwork is thirty-six feet long and was completed on one piece of paper. It is presented here in two forms:

1. The work broken into three parts:

   Part I

   Part II

   Part III

   This work is done in the traditional Japanese form, where it is intended to be "read" from left to right. Western influences in the design of the web make it impossible to view images beginning at the right-most edge, where those images are longer than one screen wide. Therefore these three parts of the scroll necessarily start at the left margin.

2. The work as a "slide show", two panels per screen, with directional arrows so that the viewer can scroll back and forth.

   This form does allow us to begin the scroll at the right-most edge, so we have done so. "Scrolling" through the work, will involve moving from right to left, as the work was intended to be viewed.
