The Flying Pencils (飛んだえんぴつ): Published in 1982, Yayanagi worked on a collection of eight prints entitled “Les Crayons Qui Volent”/”The Flying Pencil” (edition of 95). The series was produced in line with a Poetry Art Book 詩画集 published by Children’s Poetry Magazine, Silo Association (サイロの会編). Eight poems written by elementary school pupils across Hokkaido’s Tokachi region were selected to accompany each of Yayanagi’s designs within the series. An additional sixty-two poems accompany the poetry book.
