This project based on the combined perspective of art and solving social issues was implemented in cooperation with Takenori Miyamoto, an associate professor at Tokyo University of the Arts, and leading contemporary poet Ryoichi Wago as its central artist. Foreign women living in Japan were interviewed about their different emotional experiences during pregnancy and child-rearing to create a multilingual illustrated book of poems that focuses on the fundamental things that all mothers have in common. The resulting poetry collection was given out to families with overseas roots raising children in a multicultural environment, people interested in multicultural living, and related organizations. The project included two live reading events.
In 2023, Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre and Miyamoto collaborated on a shadow picture project (with the cooperation of this organization) in which interviews with four foreign women living in Japan were turned into shadow art, resonating with many people. Triggered by this project, the latest initiative focused on the emotions of mothers from Myanmar who had to leave their country due to political upheaval.
