“When we walk on the ground, we should remember that we are walking upon them. Everyone wanted to survive but many were killed on this spot.” -Sakue Shimorhira, Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Survivor Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Survivor

After these are sold there will be no more available.
This is the link to last year’s interview about From Above on The John Batchelor Show on WABC Radio. We cover some of my journey to Hiroshima and Nagasaki photographing atomic bomb survivors (hibakusha). The exhibition will once return to the Nagasaki Peace Memorial Hall in December 2017 and will also be shown for a limited time at the Tenri Cultural Center in NY during August 2017.
A huge thank you to Mr. Batchelor for having me on the show for the third to speak about From Above. The John Batchelor show is the highest rated radio show in New York at the 9pm time slot. Honored again to be asked back to the show!

Day after Christmas, the From Above exhibition has ended. Thank you to the Nagasaki National Peace Memorial Hall for Atomic Bomb Victims for the great opportunity to show my hibakusha (atomic bomb survivor) portraits.
The final day of my From Above exhibition at the Nagasaki National Peace Memorial Hall for Atomic Bomb Victims. It was an honor to have been asked by the Peace Hall to participate in the Nagasaki Peace Film Forum and to have met with many of the hibakusha (atomic bomb survivors) I’ve photographed in the past.
Thank you to everyone who attended and to the many people who helped make this possible throughout the eight years of the project. Without them there would not be an exhibition or project.
