Peace Art Posters by 100 Artists
Gather 100 artist volunteers of different nationalities and genres,
and have them come together to make posters in the service of peace.
This was the project of New York based photographer, Kenro Izu.
Paintings, illustrations, graphics, photographs, calligraphy, prints,
and other works created by artists with no restrictions imposed on them were printed
in digital format and converted into posters. Stuart de Haan oversaw the printing.
Among the 100 Peace Art posters is a work by Mieko Wong*.
The Peace Art exhibit will be held in New York from January 25,
after which it is scheduled to move to Tokyo at Ikebukuro Sunshine,
and on to Hiroshima and other venues.
We will inform you of the schedule in Japan at a later date.

She has been Wong's partner, helping with concerts and CD production since the start of the Wong Wing Tsan label,
SATOWA MUSIC. She has been doing CD jacket design since the album "Doh Yoh" (1997),
and "If there were no mines" is one of her works.
Until then, her career included participation in a variety of projects such as planning for commercial spaces
and architectural design. She studied modern dance with the Fuji Mieko Dance Company and has performed
as a dancer on stages both at home and abroad. She has also been involved with stage costume design
and production activities.
In 2000, she and three friends established Aterier CUSQUENA and together produced the Kaeru Card.
In 2001 she became involved in album jacket design for other musicians, started her own dance workshop,
and has continued to broaden her range of activities.
Currently, her work is centered on SATOWA MUSIC, and she is active as an "expressionist" in many diverse projects.
