"From the 5th of October to the 21st of September 2003, 15 dolls of Simon's work were displayed in a building which used to be an orthopedic hospital, but is no longer used, in Iyomishima city, Ehime. Nowhere-else could have been such a perfect environment for these Simon's dolls. Simon Yotsuya has been a legend for all other doll creators. He is a pioneer doll creator of the modern age jointed dolls in Japan. This is a memory of the 15 dolls which stood in the ruins of the hospital for 717 days."
