INFORMATION

“The Shining Lady” was received The Me&Eve Award held by CENTER

I am so honored and grateful that my work “The Shining Lady” was selected for the Me&Eve Award held by @centersantafe
It’s a story about my grandma Tsuyajyo (her name means “the shining lady” in Japanese), who lived with dementia until winter 2020, when she passed away at the age of 100.
In the photographs, she doesn’t seem so shining, and the story itself is about a small event that happened in a small town. She was the shining lady just to me, and I hope the photographs remind someone of someone precious.
I am so grateful that it was selected by Ms. Leonor Mamina, the juror of this award. I’m really looking forward to going to Santa Fe this November!
