MORI, THE ARTIST’S HABITAT

モリのいる場所

99min /2018 Director: Shuichi Okita TORONTO PREMIERE“A delightful dip into a creator’s world. One of the Best Films of the Year” -– Japan Times
In his last 30 years, reclusive artist Morikazu Kumagai (1880 - 1977),
rarely ventured beyond his Tokyo home; instead, he spends hours in his
luxuriant garden keenly observing the cats, fish, birds and insects andeventually rendering them into his distinct paintings. Featuring a castlead by screen legends Tsutomu Yamazaki and Kirin Kiki, this delightful,
quirky and virtually plot-free comedy traces an imaginary day in the life ofMori and Hideko -his wife of over 50 years – as they entertain a throng of
welcomed and unwelcomed visitors, including condo developers whose
presence signals imminent and irreversible change.
Starring Tsutomu Yamazaki, Kirin Kiki, Ryo Kase, Ken Mitsuishi.
Preceded by John Northcott and David Michael Lamb’s NORIKO MAEDA– FOUNDATIONS
Date: Saturday August 17, 2019
Time: 1:30pm

THE USUKE BOYS ウスケボーイズ

102min/2018 Director: Yuji Kakizaki NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE
Okamura and four close friends regularly meet at a group for wine aficionados. They share the belief
that Japanese grapes are less flavorful than French grapes and so bear an inferior wine. When theyencounter Japanese-made Kikyogahara Merlot and its maker Usuke Asai, their lives are changed.
Dropping their jobs and renting farmland they pledge to follow Usuke-san and his philosophy ofwine-making, and life. A warm, inspirational tale for wine-lovers and teetotalers alike and starring:
Dai Watanabe, Masayuki Deai, Yuka Takeshima, Kenta Uchino and Isao Hashizume
The festival is very excited to welcome award-winning director, writer, producer YUJI KAKIZAKI
and cast members MASAYUKI DEAI, YUKA TAKASHIMA and TSUKASA ITO.

OKKO’S INN
Okko is orphaned and goes to live in the countryside with her
grandmother, who runs a traditional inn built on top of an ancientspring said to have healing waters. While she goes about her
chores she discovers there are spirits who live there that only
she can see – not scary ones, but welcoming ghosts who
keep her company, play games and help her navigate her new
environment. The inn’s motto is that it welcomes all and will reject
none, and this is soon put to the test as a string of new guests
challenge Okko’s ability to be a gracious host. Director Kitaro
Kosaka’s visually gorgeous film seamlessly blends immersive,
idyllic landscapes with the storybook charm of Okko’s beloved
ghosts. A heartwarming film for the whole family.

Sedai Is Now Live on Vimeo!
Sedai, the Japanese Canadian Legacy Project, started off as a pilot
program with the primary objective of recording and preserving thehistory and experiences of Japanese Canadians through oral history.
Today, over 200 interviews had been recorded. While most interviews
are used for research purposes, the Sedai committee worked tirelessly
to offer the public access to these interviews. In 2008, www.sedai.ca
launched successfully to increased accessibility of Japanese Canadian’s
oral history to the public. Fast-forward eleven years later in 2019, withthe ease of use and increasing popularity of video-based platform, Sedai
has joined the video platform Vimeo – a secure, user friendly platform
for viewing the hundreds of videos that sedai has recordedIn addition,a select video will be featured on a monthly basis on the JCCC website
through the Heritage page so be sure to keep your eyes out for that!

Redefining Home Opens Again!

On June 19 the JCCC celebrated the International Day of Nikkei (June 20) by hostinga Lunch ‘n’ Learn with Madeleine Howard, a former University of Toronto student,
and Liz Driver, Director/Curator of The Campbell House Museum, talking about the
inception and research involved in creating the exhibit Redefining Home; A Story ofJapanese Canadian Resettlement in Toronto for The Campbell House Museum.
With approximately 40 people in attendance, including Arlene Kawasoe,
daughter of Harold and Hana who are featured in the exhibit, we learned about
Campbell House and it’s place in Toronto’s history, relocating to Toronto in the 1940’s
and the process of creating an exhibit out of living histories.
The exhibit will remain in the Heritage Lounge Display Cases through the summer.

Exhibit and Panel Discussion

NORIKO MAEDA
Foundations

Noriko Maeda: Foundations Echoes in Culture"The art of Japanese calligraphy is intimately tied to the act of translation. It is read, interpreted and transforms
itself in innumerable ways as its impulses flow through culture. It draws inspiration from surprising places andinspires new thought where least expected. On the one year anniversary of the publication of Noriko Maeda:
Foundations, this exhibition and video present two of the book’s first echoes in the Canadian cultural landscape.
Against this backdrop, this unique exhibition event presents a panel of artists and cultural figures who will join
Noriko Maeda in a conversation on the ways in which the book and Japanese calligraphy in general have foundechoes in their own creations beyond the domain of calligraphy. "www.norikomaeda.com

U of T 1st Year Engineering Students Design Kyudo Equipment
by Minoru Tanaka

The JCCC Kyudo club, Seikyukai, is celebrating its tenth year at JCCC. With the support of the JCCC, its
volunteers and under the leadership of Mie Takahashi sensei, Kyudo has developed into a significant part of
the JCCC martial arts program.
Opportunities for regular kinteki practice (28-meter shooting) – an essential element in Kyudo practice– is limited at the JCCC. To supplement, Seikyukai has been renting a gymnasium facility at Brock University.
Kyudo equipment (arrow stands and backstop net) are transported to the Brock University each time. The
arrow stands in use at JCCC were not intended to be portable and, thus, are bulky andheavy. The improvised backstop net hanger system is dependent on the availability of
two portable basketball backboards, which are provided by Brock University.
To address the difficulties in equipment, University of Toronto 1st year engineering
students were tasked this year with the design and development of a portable arrow Arrow stand
stand and a portable backstop net hanger system, as part of the Engineering, Strategy and Practice course.
After three months of team work including three meetings with a Seikyukai volunteer, each team came up witha well thought out design solution. The arrow stand holds about twice as many arrows as the original stand,
while it weighs only about 20% of the original, and, when folded for transport, it is approximately 1/4 of the size.
The net hanger is self-supporting, compact and easy to assemble and disassemble.
Backstop net hanger
The time and effort the student teams put into these projects is very much appreciated. The outcome is win-win.

Community NewsThe JCCC Congratulates Marie Ikeda
Marie Ikeda was honoured at the recent Canadian Multicultural Council Annual Gala with the“Outstanding Asian-Canadian Community Awards”.
Marie’s volunteerism started in 1967, when she decided to take Sumi-e (ink painting) lessons
at the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre. She then started doing sumi-e demonstrations at
the C.N.E. to promote the cultural programmes taught at the JCCC. This was the beginning ofmany years of volunteering at various festivals and bazaars, which continues to the present day.
Marie became head of the Sumi-e programme in 1981 until 1984. Besides Sumi-e, she also
volunteered in many capacities at the JCCC, including co-chairing of the Women’s Auxiliary from1976 to 1980. She was also on the committee working on the publication of the cookbook “Just
Add Shoyu”.
Marie supported husband Sid in all his fund-raising efforts over the years. They were
honoured in 2007 with the “Sid and Marie Ikeda Tower”.
Congratulations Marie. Thanks for your contribution to our community.

し、三味線プレイヤー・上妻 宏光（あがつま ひろみつ）、ピアニスト・
塩谷 哲（しおのや さとる）により結成されたユニット。2人のジョイ
ントは、2004年1月にリリースされた上妻のアルバム“Beyond”において、以前から塩谷の演奏を聴き強く惹かれていた上妻の熱望により、塩谷が『君への想い』という楽曲に参加した事から始まる。以来コンサート等で共演する毎に、文化背景の異なるそれぞれの楽器によるお互いの音楽観に惹かれ合い意気投合、親交を深めた事がきっかけとなりユニットを結成。そこに表現される音は、民族音楽の持つ強いエネルギーと西洋音楽の持つ整合性が重なり合った、新しいスタイルの日本発コンテンポラリーミュージック。前例のないその音楽性は各地で賞賛を受け、2009年11月11日にアルバムをリリース。

Noriko Maeda: Foundations

Echoes in Culture
The art of Japanese calligraphy is intimately tied
to the act of translation. It is read, interpreted
and transforms itself in innumerable ways as
its impulses ﬂow through culture. It draws
inspiration from surprising places and inspires
new thought where least expected. On the one
year anniversary of the publication of Noriko
Maeda: Foundations, this exhibition and video
present two of the book’s ﬁrst echoes in the
Canadian cultural landscape. Against thisbackdrop, this unique exhibition event presents
a panel of artists and cultural ﬁgures who will
join Noriko Maeda in a conversation on the ways
in which the book and Japanese calligraphy ingeneral have found echoes in their own creations
beyond the domain of calligraphy.

在トロント日本国総領事への表敬訪問

健やかな老後をめざして

この度2年の任期を終えNJCC・新日系コミッティー内での代表・担当
交代に際し、伊藤恭子総領事への表敬訪問を新移住者の憩いの場であるJCCC・ヒロコバラルルームにお迎えする形で行いました。
また、
梶本大樹領事もお仕事の合間を縫って同席して下さいました。
先ずは、2017年秋にNJCCが主催した『新移住者50周年記念パーティー』にご出席頂くため日本からの赴任を早めて下さった事へのお礼と、数々の日系イベントへ積極的にご参加頂いている事への感
謝の気持ちをお伝えしました。
そして、伊藤総領事が日系コミュニティの多くの人々と接触して下さるお蔭で在トロント総領事館との強いつながりが構築され連携がとてもスムーズになってきたように感じる事や、梶本領事が定期的に
海外安全対策連絡協議会を開催し各日系団体に安全を呼びかける
働きに、私たちも賛同している旨をお伝えしました。
現在NJCCの主な活動として、お正月会をはじめJCCCの各イベント
への協力、『JCCC新移住者シニアクラブ』の開催等があり、近年は留学エージェントを通して日本からの学生やワーホリの若者がJCCCに足を運び積極的にボランティアをしてくれ大変活気があるという事、
そして今後のNJCCの抱負として数多くの在トロント日系団体と密なコミュニケーションをはかり、共に力を合わせより大きな輪を持つ日系社会作りに貢献していく方針であるとお伝えしました。
伊藤総領事の気さくなお人柄のお蔭で、和やかな雰囲気の中で挨
拶・会話を楽しめた表敬訪問でした。

近年増加している「加齢黄斑変性」！
加齢黄斑変性（かれいおうはんへんせい）とは、加齢によって網膜（
眼の最も奥）の中心にある黄斑部が変性し、視野の中心がゆがんだ
り、ぼやけて見えたりする病気です。加齢により網膜に老廃物が溜まり続けて炎症を起こす、あるいは網膜の細胞が委縮して症状が進行します。特に黄斑部は視力を決める非常に大切な場所なので、この部分の障害は失明するリスクを高めます。両目で見ると脳が見えない部分を補ってしまうため、異常に気付きにくいのです。
脂質の多い食生活が関係しているとも言われ、欧米では成人が中途失明する原因の第１位です。日本でも食生活の欧米化によって年々増加しています。ある日、健康そのものの友人Aさんから「この頃、遠近感が取りにくいと感じていたの。ニンジンを切ろうとしたら、ナイフをあてた部分がぼやけている！」と電話がありました。
「加
齢黄斑変性かもしれないので、一刻も早く受診して！」と伝えました。
Aさんは月1回の眼球注射を3か月続けて、症状が改善しました。
もちろん患者によって反応は異なるので、経過観察しながら、注射の間隔やその他の治療法との併用が決められていきます。コンタク
トレンズさえ入れた経験がない私は、眼球注射と聞くだけで腰が引けますが（笑）、彼女から「局所麻酔するので痛みはほとんどなかっ
たよ」
と聞いて、
ちょっと安心しました。
症状が改善しても、継続した検査と治療が必要です。Ａさんの場
合、その後も数か月ごとに注射を受けています。一般的に1年を過ぎると注射の間隔は延びていきます。完治が難しいとは言え、治療法が進歩しているので、何よりも早期発見が重要です。
加齢黄斑変性チェック用紙（アムスラーチャート：1つのマス目が５㎜ほどの方眼紙）を作ることが出来ます。縦横に格子状の線を引き、中央に黒い点を描きます。眼鏡やコンタクトを外さずに、30㎝離して片目で黒い点を見詰めます。真ん中がゆがんだり、暗くぼやけたりしませんか？さあ、家族や友人とチェックしてみましょう！
予防の第一は食生活です。酸化ストレス（活性酸素の増加により体内の酸化が進んだ状態）は網膜の老廃物を増加させます。その酸化ストレスを減らすために、抗酸化ビタミン（ビタミンC、ビタミンEなど）、βカロテンやルテインを多く含む緑黄色野菜、DHAやEPAを多く含む青魚などをしっかり摂りましょう。当地で手軽に手に入るサーモンも抗酸化作用の強い魚です。脂質の多い食品には注意しましょう。
次に、禁煙！喫煙すると血液中の酸化ストレスが増えます。
これこ
そが、いろんな病気において禁煙が勧められる理由なのです。また、強い光は黄斑部の細胞に影響を与えます。サングラス、日傘やつばの広い帽子などで目を守りましょう。
活性酸素は身体にとって必要なものですが、ストレスの多い現代
社会では体内に異常に増加し、細胞のサビや遺伝子異常（ガン化）を促進させ、病気の主たる原因であることが明らかになっています。体内の活性酸素をいかに減らすか（抗酸化）、それが健康寿命のカギと言えるでしょう。
私の場合は、抗酸化作用の強いナノバブル水素水を1日1.5リット
ル以上飲用し、調理にも使っています。水は身体の半分以上を占めているのですから、どのような水を摂るかを何よりも大事に考えています。
