Jose Gurria-Cardenas asked me to photograph him for his upcoming show at the Blue Whale on May 7.  “The show is about the phases of my career in particular the last 6 years which is what I have spent in LA , where I feel so many life changing things have happened… The healing aspect is that the music has washed (if not everything) at least the most toxic stuff. I have survived because of my art.”

This message below is from Children’s Welfare Division, Social Health & Welfare Department, Fukushima Prefecture, where all donations will be sent to:

“Many children lost their parents through the Great East Japan Earthquake in Fukushima Prefecture.
In addition, many children were forced to leave their familiar hometowns due to the nuclear disaster, and their loss experiences caused a heavy burden to the children’s minds.

However, the prefecture is determined to support them for a long period of time with your goodwill donations so that they will be able to steadily go forward without surrendering their dreams that they used to have before the disaster in the midst of such severe circumstances.”

日本語
”本県では、東日本大震災により、多くの子どもたちが親を失いました。
加えて、原子力災害により、住み慣れた土地からも離れなければならない子どもたちも多く、様々な喪失体験により、幼い心に多大なる負担がかかっています。

しかしながら、このような状況においても、子どもたちが震災前に抱いていたそれぞれの夢をあきらめることなく、着実に前に進んでいくことができるよう、皆様からの善意の寄附をいただき、長期的な支援を行っていきたいと考えております。”

This is the benefit event for children in Fukushima to give hope and support to have education. To encourage and help them to pursue their dream.

Thank you so much for your support.
ご支援ありがとうございます。
