This work consists of 45 cards, turning from one image to another. On the first card, Ono's face is place in the window which is from her home, Dakota house in New York. She looks like recalling her memories. As her face fades out little by little, a image of "witch trial" comes out. This work has a subtitle which is "Selam 1692". It is a historical tragedy happened in Selam (USA) accusing women for using black magic .

Ono understood this history as a misconception which people perceived a women with great talent or influential voice who may frighten others, as a "witch". Since she was a woman spoke out for feminism and was blamed as an "Eastern witch" who led the Beatiles to break up by luring John Lennon, "witch trial" was a calamity she experienced in her life.

As you flick to the last cards, a little girl loom over the witch trial. This girl is Ono herself, looks as if she is viewing the witch trial without knowing something similar will happen in her future life.

Have you experienced something in your life as you were treated like a "witch"? Ono is always on your side and she is still fighting as a witch to bring peace magic on the earth.
