Ten years on from the devastating 2011 earthquake, tsunami and nuclear crisis on the Tohoku coast in Japan, this project is a curated display of screen-based artworks by Japanese and Japanese-Australian artists responding to survivors’ irreversible losses over the past decade. The works, whether responding from afar or directly capturing Tōhoku’s transformed landscapes, focus on the concept of recovery for its displaced communities.

Part 1 of this multipart project features works by Motoyuki Shitamichi, Masahiro Hasunuma, Masaharu Sato.

The project is curated by Emily Wakeling and presented in partnership with Composite and Metro Arts. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body, plus support from Bus Projects and Metro Arts.
