Komomaki (菰巻き) are straw belts, also known as waramaki, wrapped around trees during winter in Japan to protect them against pests. They are wrapped around pine trees, a custom that dates back to the Edo period. The idea is to attract a pest known as the “pine moth” or matsugahera in Japanese, which eats pine needles and weakens the tree. The komomaki are placed as a warm place for the caterpillars to spend the winter, and they are burned just before spring, before the caterpillars emerge from hibernation. The ashes are used as fertiliser.

However, it has been found that komomaki are counterproductive to use because they catch more insects that are beneficial for the pine trees, and that the number of pine moths caught was relatively low. A study by Chikako Niiho and others from the Himeji Institute of Technology on the komomaki at Himeji castle discovered that in 2005 only six of the 1,577 insects caught that year (0.3%) were pine moths.

Silent geometries for a deafening everyday life
The silence of a photograph does not show the deafening noise of the whirlpools within us.

Geometrias silenciosas para um cotidiano ensurdecedor
"O silêncio de uma fotografia não mostra o barulho ensurdecedor dos redemoinhos dentro de nós."
