The swirl pattern has been used mainly in East Asian regions as a symbol of life and death, as well as a symbol that represents resurrection, rebirth, and eternity, all indicators of a strong sense of vitality. For example, this kind of pattern was drawn on Jomon period pottery, as well as dotaku (ceremonial bells) made in the Yayoi period. In addition, the labyrinth symbol (actually a maze-like entwined pattern) is said to be almost synonymous with a similar symbol that appeared in Western countries such as Scotland and Greece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"block-dcfe31ef-6a9c-422a-bade-7c2c872d54ce\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.motoi-works.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/spiral_2012_charleston-01-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\u753b\u50cf\u306b alt \u5c5e\u6027\u304c\u6307\u5b9a\u3055\u308c\u3066\u3044\u307e\u305b\u3093\u3002\u30d5\u30a1\u30a4\u30eb\u540d: spiral_2012_charleston-01-791x1024.jpg\" \/><figcaption>Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art, Charleston \/ Solo Exhibition ;
