Riyu
Artist, Poetry Reading & translation

I spent most of my childhood in Chicago and New York City, and started music after I returned to Japan. I came back to Japan at age twelve, and the differences between the two cultures built the basis of my thoughts. In my American classroom were African, Phillipino, Israeli, Dutch, Korean, Chinese … children with different cultural backgrounds. It was a powerful environment, and I thought I saw a somewhat ideal society. I like putting myself in an atmosphere with conflicting personalities and sense of values, hopefully creating much greater harmony. Because it’s more of a challenge. And besides, it’d be boring if we were all the same.
I hope to abolish the many borders - like gender, age, and nationalities.
