From the 16th of September, AIDA Makoto is participating in the group exhibition “Legacy3.11 the power of art and creativity in 3.11: Japan past, present and future” held in the Ex Cisterne of Fabbrica del Vapore, Milan, Italy.
“Legacy 3.11 was formed with artists that Nippon AWAKES met through struggles after the 3.11 Great East Japan Earthquake, the Tohoku disaster that happened on March 11th, 2011. It was an immensely devastating event. However, amidst the despair, some individuals chose to view the situation with optimism, seeking ways to propel it towards a better future. It is our hope that people today will listen to the voices of these artists as a catalyst for healing the world and fostering a society where differences are respected.” – Nippon AWAKES Institute
