Title: Glare of the Sun in Summer
Design: Kaoru Kasai

The glare of the sun in summer (in japanese: Natsu no Hi no Mabushisa) is accompanied by sadness. I picked up a brush in front of a white paper and drew this picture without thinking. Various feelings came to me while I repeated drawing, and then I could not keep drawing any longer. We are supported by somebody, and we think of somebody. That’s why we can live. An atomic bombing can by no means take our heart away from the yearning or affection for the people that we love. I deeply hope that this poster can accompany what victims and survivors feel.
