              “We are in the same boat”

 

My paintings reflect Vulnerable Groups in Society. My art works are based on the following themes: bullying at school, child abuse,  abandonment of child care and so on.

Many children feel they do not have a home and feel lonely. Often, they suffer by blaming themselves. They feel the limits for living. Ignoring the circumstances are followed up by committing suicides.

But it is not just children related problem. 

Many Japanese don’t feel happy. Because Japanese people think if they are different but not the same it is not acceptable.

There is a need for diversity in our everyday life. 

I think bulling and suicide will decreases by accepting diversity. Children watch adults everyday and are brought up by the examples of their environment.

We adult must make a relieved staying place for children. Small innumerable intention is necessary not indifference.
