(Fishermen who work in Tokyo Bay selected the colour they imagine the sea is.)

The title, Biotide, expresses the fact that life on the earth are under influence of Moon's gravitational force in one way or another. Everyone knows about tidal wave; and it was an astonishment to me when I realised that the force which would change the sea level by meters, in fact has effect on our body the same way. The moon, the sea which is under the control of the moon, and the people who live by the sea and their sensitivity are themes of this work.(Michico Amali)
