Keiko Mukaide was one of our invited artists in 2010. Her installation at the Old Men’s Club on the harbour was built around memories of Pittenweem villagers present and past. The recent earthquake and tsunami has led to her creating an installation at the Old Box Yard Venue 18 and along with Dot Sim, jeweller, fashioning a necklace which will be auctioned. The proceeds will go to the Sanriku Recovery Foundation which is dedicated to the fishing community on the Sanriku coast.
