My great-grandfather was incarcerated at the Topaz War Relocation Center in Utah, U.S. for three years during the Pacific theaters of World War II. In these photographic works, I put together the landscape of the former Topaz War Migration Center site with a photograph of the Pacific Ocean as a symbol of the Japanese immigrants' migration.
私の曽祖父は太平洋戦争中、アメリカのユタ州のトパーズ戦争移住センターに3年間収容 されていました。 この作品では、トパーズ戦争移住センター跡地の風景と、日系移民の移 住の表象として太平洋の海の写真を重ねました。
