From Above photography exhibition at the TENRI Cultural Institute features portraits of atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
In 2012, From Above was released as a limited edition multi-lingual photo book in English, Japanese and German. The book sold out internationally and gained media attention in North America, Japan, Europe and Australia. The project has also featured in numerous television, newspaper and radio reports from across the globe.
In addition to this,
From Above has been displayed on multiple occasions in international museums and exhibition spaces, including the United Nations in New York and the Nagasaki Prefecture Museum of Art.
The goal of From Above is to put a human face to the words in the history books.
