FREEZE OUR FUKUSHIMAS | Strong Children Japan



FREEZE OUR FUKUSHIMAS!

Petition to suspension of operating license for North Anna Power Station due to concerns about damage to reactors from the 8/23/11 earthquake.


Strong Children Japan

Portraits of Japanese children and young people living with the ongoing consequences of the Fukushima Daichi nuclear accident, the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami of March 11th 2011. The images and words are made by the children, combined with their portrait by Japan-based English artist Geoff Read done according to their instructions. The aim is to enable them to share their important experiences and thoughts with the world.


"There is a smile in the middle of sunflowers.
I think everyone smiles when they see them."

Yamato is 13 and lives in Fukushima

The writing on the picture is a haiku about the importance of living cheerfully, like sunflowers. Sunflowers have been planted in high radiation areas of Fukushima in an attempt to remove radiation from the soil, so they are becoming a symbol of regeneration.
