Kyudo is… Seikyu Kai:
The 10 year Anniversary
Submitted by Sarah Macapagal

Seikyu Kai Kyudo Club in Toronto has reached a milestone.
As of 2018 the club which practices every Saturday morning in
the wood dojo of the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre hasturned 10 years old. To commemorate 10 years of existence theclub has created an installation which can currently be seen in
the display case by the museum.
As one walks towards the wood dojo the display case with its
myriad of items comes into view. Are you drawn in by the text
on the panels, the mini uniform hanging in the corner, the scalemodel of a Kyudojo, or the large multi-coloured sign proclaiming“Kyudo is…”? Whichever element draws you to the display casethe closer you get the more there is to see.
In the case is a collage. Who are these people you may
ask? What do these snippets of memory represent? The faces
staring back at you are the members both old and new who are
dedicated to Seikyu Kai. They have created and continue tocreate the club’s history.
For 10 years Kyudo has meant beauty, teamwork, serenity,
and sincerity to its members and it has taught them about
enduring and overcoming challenges on their paths to becoming
their best selves. While Kyudo, the activity, exists within its
practice spaces, uniforms, and equipment, Kyudo, the martial
art, lives within each of the members of Seikyu Kai. Thoughts
on Kyudo are displayed in the case and echo how Seikyu Kai
members feel about their own chosen martial art.
The creation of the display case was also an exercise inpersonal reflection for each of the members and a way for us toconnect with the larger JCCC community. The members of theclub are drawn from all walks of life and possess a multitude ofdifferent talents including art and design. In fact, the Seikyu Kai
t-shirt in the display case was designed by a member.
While the display in the case is a temporary installation,
t-shirts, the designs on them, and fashion in general is a clear
visual representation of who we are and a way for us to tell ourstory to a wider audience. That others would like to be part ofour Kyudo community is indicative of the impact Seikyu Kai has
made throughout its 10 year history.
Eventually the installation will become another memory
for Seikyu Kai, however, the legacy of the group will continue
to grow. Here's to 10 years of existence and wishes for many
more!

Being Japanese Canadian:Reflections on a Broken World
Submitted by Theressa Takasaki

The ROM has always been one of my favourite places to go.
Every time I walk through the doors, I know that I will discoversomething new-to-me or find another hidden corner which I
have not previously explored.
On Thursday, January 31, I was at the ROM for the
opening of Being Japanese Canadian: reflections on a broken
world. Surrounded by almost 300 community and ROM
members, I was struck by just how unusual this exhibit is for theROM. This exhibit has been designed to share the Sigmund
Samuel Gallery of Canada. It features the works of Japanese
Canadian artists interspersed with the works of other prominent
Canadians which are on permanent display, as well as some
artifacts and photographs from the JCCC’s collection to provide
historic context. Co-curated by ROM personnel, Dr. Heather
Read, with Dr. Katherine Yamashita and Bryce Kanbara, theexhibit explores the lasting impact of Internment on Japanese

Canadians. It features artwork by Lillian Michiko Blakely, David L
Hayashida, Emma Nishimura, Steven Nunodo, Laura Shintani,
Norman Takeuchi, Marjene Matsunaga Turnbull and Yvonne
Wakabayashi; many of whom have exhibited their works at the
JCCC in the past, or are currently doing so.
In spite of being a relatively small installation, I was not able
to see everything that was on offer. I can’t wait to return to the
ROM with my family to explore this very exciting installation andto discuss with them all of the different aspects of this exhibitthat make it such an intriguing gallery to explore right now.
The Exhibit will run until August 2, 2019 and will host several
programs featuring Japanese Canadian speakers, artists andmusicians.

Farther down the page inthe February 3rd Star, was an article on an exhibition called,“Being Japanese Canadian” featuring eight JC artists at theRoyal Ontario Musem. The exhibit is a collaboration between
the ROM and JCCC and co-curated by Kathy Yamashita, Bryce
Kanbara, Dr. Heather Read and Dr. Arlene Gehmacher.
Also on February 3rd, at our own JCCC Gallery, we openeda beautiful and provocative exhibition called, “Blended”, the artof Miya Turnbull and Norman Takeuchi that is their response tobeing Japanese Canadian.
And later in February at the Campbell House Museumat Queen St. W. and University Ave., an exhibition will openfeaturing the work of JC artists Lillian Michiko Blakey and Laura

We hope that you can take in all of the exhibitions and the play.

Being in Between:
Reflection on the Self

Redefining Home:
A Story of Japanese Canadian
Resettlement in TorontoIntheexhibit
Blended,Iamhonoured to be
showing over 60of my self-portrait
masks. Each one isa different variationof my face. Someof my masks are
representational
but in most cases
I have altered my image in various manners; the slant of myeyes for example, or sometimes extreme changes resulting ininhumane proportions. I do this as a way to explore different
facets of my identity, specifically being half Japanese andexamining my feelings of being ‘in between’. I am using masks
as a metaphor for persona and identity, which in itself is highly
complex requiring the masks’ structure to be manipulated attimes to reflect this. The inside portion of the hanging masks
are revealed to allow for the exploration of that space and to
make the inner world visible.
By making masks of myself, I can create and present
different personas, and I am able to change my features andexperiment with how I look in ways I couldn’t do in reality.
Seeing my self-portrait masks installed in the gallery is a very
different and rewarding experience for me than when they werelaying around my studio. It lets me see each version of my face,eye to eye, and in this way I can mentally separate myself frommy own image and see ‘outside’ of myself in a physical way.
This process gives me an opportunity to understand thecore of who I am. When observing the complete group ofmasks all together, I hope the viewer looks deeper and sees apart of me in all of them, or perhaps ‘in between’ of all them.

Redefining
Home:
A Story of Japanese
Canadian Resettlementin Toronto uncovers thehidden story of Haroldand Hana Kawasoe,a Japanese Canadiancouple who once lived
in the attic of Campbell
House.
Duringthe
Photo: Harold and Hana Kawasoe on a Picnic

War,

over 22,000 Japanese
Canadians were exiled
to internment and work camps. Others were forced to move tosugar beet farms in Alberta to keep their families together, oreven deported to Japan.
Harold and Hana, like many Japanese Canadian citizens,
left for Ontario, leaving their homes and families behind in British
Columbia. Removed from everything they had ever known, how
did this young couple eventually make Toronto their home?
Using Harold’s and Hana’s remarkable story, Redefining
Home focuses on the forced relocation and resettlement ofJapanese Canadians in Toronto in the 1940s and beyond.
The exhibition invites visitors to engage with the topic througharchival materials, family photographs, and historical objects– assembled for display in the very house where Harold andHana lived from 1948 to 1951. Redefining Home uncovers theopportunities and obstacles that Toronto’s Japanese Canadian
community faced as they rebuilt their lives and homes in aforeign city.
The exhibit also features original art installations by LillianMichiko Blakey and Laura Shintani. Reflecting on Harold’s andHana’s story, as well as their own experiences of being Japanese
Canadian, each artist explores ideas of home, identity, loss, andresilience.
Curated by: Meghan Drascic-Gaudio, Hailey Graham andMadeleine Howard
Redefining Home runs from Friday March 1, 2019 to
Monday April 1, 2019.

母親の愛を描いた悲話、「葛の葉 （くずのは）」つり針で嫁を釣り上げるという笑いを誘う演目、「釣女 （つりおんな）」紫式部の源氏物語をもとにした西川座の最新作、源氏が求愛する若い女が別の愛人の生霊に取りつかれる、

午後6時から午後8時＄25（JCCC会員）＄30（一般）熊本大学病院での実習初日、ある病棟婦長から「口の健康が全身の健康につながる！」と何度も言われたことが強く印象に残っています。でも、健康そのものの20歳当時はその意味をちゃんと理解できていませんでした。口の健康が食生活に直結することを身をもって感じる
年齢になって思い知らされます。案外と中高年に多いのが、口内炎とドライマウ
スなのです。
口内炎とはほおの内側、上あごや舌などの粘膜に起きる炎症です。物理的刺激、アレルギーやカンジダによるもの、原因のはっきりしないもの（アフタ性口内炎）、の４つのタイプがあります。
熱いものを食べたり、ほおの内側を噛んだり、入れ歯や矯正装置などが当たってできる炎症（物理的刺激）は、原因を除去すれば2週間くらいで治ります。加齢と共にほおを噛むことが多くなり（若い時にはなかった！）、辛いから揚げなど食べると口が荒れると感じていますが、皆さまはいかがですか？
カンジダは常に身体の中にいる常在菌なので、通常は炎症を起こしません。
ところが免疫の働きが低下したり、口の中が乾燥すると炎症を起こすのです。粘膜が赤くなったり、白くなったり、赤や白が混在したりと様々です。炎症が改善しない場合は歯科や耳鼻咽喉科を受診しましょう！放置しておくと味覚障害を生じることがあります。
また、入れ歯にはカンジダが繁殖しやすいので清潔に保ちましょう。
最近、注目されるようになったのは歯科治療の詰め物やかぶせ物などの金属アレルギーです。新しい素材が開発されているので交換できます。また、古くなった銀歯の中にむし歯がないかにも注意！私の場合、日本からアメリカへ留学する前に点検（40歳当時は銀歯）、50代後半に当地で最新のもの（セラミック）へ交換しました。その際、やはり銀歯の中にむし歯が見つかりました！その後は定期検査＆適切なケアを続け、60代後半の現在、自身の歯全てと歯茎を良好に保っています。相当に努力していま～す。
頻繁にアフタができる場合はストレス、栄養の偏り、消化器系の不調や薬の副作用が原因ではありませんか？それらとの関連を考えてみましょう。炎症がなかなか治らない場合、やはり心配になるのは口腔がんです。初期は口内炎とよく似ているけれど、自然に治ることはありません。何か気になる場合は躊躇せずにスペシャリストを受診しましょう！早期発見と治療が大事です。
唾液が減るドライマウスの原因はまず加齢！更年期の女性ホルモン減少でも唾液量は減少します。
ドライマウスはストレスや薬でも生じたり、鼻炎、自己免疫疾患などが関係している場合もあります。口の中が痛い、ネバネバする、パンなど乾燥した物が食べにくい、口が渇いて目が覚める等の症状はありませんか？それらの症状が続く、あるいは悪化した場合はホームドクターに相談してみましょう。
日常生活でできることは“唾液腺を意識すること„。耳の下あたりの耳下腺を手の指で円を描くようになでて刺激してみましょう。私は舞台で唄う際、緊張（ストレス）と劇場のひどい乾燥によってドライマウ
ス状態になった時に実践しています。口や鼻の乾燥を防ぐための水分補給、加湿器の利用や寝る時のマスク着用、リラックスした過ごし方なども有効です。
