Japan

Visited the AJA (Japanese Association in Argentina) a couple of weeks ago.

Founded in 1916, it’s one of the oldest japanese institutions in Latam.

This is so cool. Reminds me of this art exhibit I saw at the main UFO-shaped museum in Brasilia back in 2019 all by this Japanese-Brazilian artist. I have the poster in my living room.

Ah yes, the one designed by Niemeyer. I wasn't familiar with that artist. I checked her work a bit, I liked it!

Brazil received massive Japanese immigration in the early 1900s. And in Japan, the Brazilian community is the fourth largest. Both countries are really connected between them.

Here in Argentina, about 90% of Japanese immigration came from Okinawa, so a lot of what we typically see as "traditional Japanese culture" here is actually heavily influenced by Okinawan traditions.
