    We are pleased to announce that Yuki Harada has been selected as one of the grantees of the "CAF Residency Program 2025," organized by the Contemporary Art Foundation.

    This newly established program aims to support contemporary artists, and after a highly competitive selection process—including document screening and in-person interviews—two artists, Yuki Harada and Ms. Kayoko Nakashima, were chosen.

    Harada will spend approximately three months in 2025 at the Brooklyn Experimental Art Foundation (BEAF) in New York, engaging in research and fostering exchanges with local artists and communities.

    For the jury's comments and more details, please visit the official website of the Contemporary Art Foundation:

    Between 1885 and 1894, the early years of government-contracted emigration from Japan, approximately 10,000 people from Yamaguchi Prefecture emigrated to Hawaii.

    Artist Yuki Harada, who has been researching the history of people who migrated from Yamaguchi and Hiroshima to Hawaii and creating video works based on the hybrid culture of Japanese Americans, will host a talk event and present a related exhibition.

    In the talk, Harada will speak about the historical connections between Yamaguchi and Hawaii, including Honolulu. The exhibition will feature Shadowing (Tomigoro), a work in which a man named Tomigoro, who crossed the ocean from Yamaguchi, recounts his life story.
