About the Event
Join us on Saturday June 27th at 1pm for a special artist walkthrough with Tama Takahashi.
“Memories of Barbed Wire: Resilience in the Japanese American Community” is an emotional portrayal of the concentration camp in Minidoka used to incarcerate over 13,000 of the 120,000 Japanese Americans imprisoned during WW II. Through large-scale photographs printed on vellum, two sculptural pieces and a video installation, multi-media artist Tama Takahashi revisits her family’s personal experience in camp. Her father’s family was forced from Seattle to Minidoka, located in the isolated, wind-whipped eastern side of Idaho.
