HERALBONY's First International Art Award－ JAL Prize Announced for HERALBONY Art Prize 2024
～Creating opportunities to “Radiate Your Color” around the world andopen up the future for artists～
Tokyo, JAPAN - JAL, as a gold sponsor, has selected the “JAL Prize” in the “HERALBONY Art Prize
2024,” an international art award for artists with disabilities organized by HERALBONY Co., Ltd. (Headoffice: Morioka City, Iwate Prefecture; hereinafter “HERALBONY”).

About the winning work and artist of the “JAL Prize”「Unknown」 / Shigaku Mizukami■ Shigaku Mizukami
As a child, he enjoyed drawing anime characters, but after he started attending Yamanami Workshop,
he began drawing patterns as soon as he picked up the brushes and rulers available in the room. His
work features countless colored fan-shapes and dots. The brush movements and the way he places
dots are methodical, repeating the same actions slowly. It is unclear whether he has a specific image inmind, whether he is simply enjoying the colors and movements, or what he feels as he draws. However,
the way he uses his brush for lines and the arrangement of dots seem to indicate how he is feeling atthat moment in time.
