Postcards to Japan 07 April – 01 July 2012

Group exhibition at Fukushima Museum of Art in
Fukushima in Japan

After the major earthquake and tsunami in north east Japan on 11th March 2011 power supplies, land lines, mobile phone networks and internet access went down, making it extremely hard to contact family and friends to find out if they were safe. The post office were quickly up and running again and in many cases the first news that loved ones were safe was by postcard.
Inspired by the wonderful impact postcards can have, the exhibition send tangible messages of support to communities affected by the devastation by making A5 size original artwork or poetry postcards
