The Birth of the World Dirt Association:

A long time ago, volcanoes of the world exploded with ashes which covered the globe. In this time period, a widespread famine occurred and seven leaders of the association came together based on a prayer for dirt. That dirt brought great happiness to people and produce became abundant.

Hundreds of years later, a group of people returned to the source of that dirt and found the peace which was conveyed by those seven young predecessors. At the beginning of this century, three young artists searched for the origins of that dirt legend, now forming the World Dirt Association. James Jack came across many oceans from the North American continent, Yoshitaka Nanjo coming from the Eurasian continent and Shotaro Yoshino from the Australian continent gathered together.
